Car Cover

Post by Old-Towd »

Looking for a good outdoor car cover, bought a cover from Walmart and it only lasted two weeks it fell apart by touch (  I should have know better  ) . Thinking of Californa Car Cover in Chatswroth, Calif.  They have an outdoor cover with a 4 yr. warranty for about $259.  What is funny is they have an option not to have their logo on the cover but they will charge an additional $5 to have it removed.

I bought a real nice one at COSTCO for about $49.00 (I think) anyway it was reasonable. I've used it for two years now (inside) and it still looks new, very heavy duty but not sure how it would stand up outside in severe weather.

 I'm sorry but when the subject of car covers comes up
 I always get a chuckle

For those of you that may remember my wifes dog that would constantly use my car upholstery as a chew toy
so my wife protecting her dog -telling me that " if you had a car cover none of this would of happened!"
so I purchase a car cover - wrap the car and loop and tie it with rope to hold it in nice and tight.
I will never forget coming home from workthe next day and walking in the back
only to find the car cover on the ground in strips
It looked like a lion had attacked it
and all that was left around the buggy was the two loops of rope
so my wife had no problem when I bought my car lift

For the Manxter, we got a cover for a VW Squareback, fitts pretty good.

Gene - she never figured out that you were the one who shredded the cover to get the lift?  LOL

I need to come up with a trick way to get a lift, this lying & stitting on the cold floor stuff at 60 years old is getting to be a drag.  Tom

   You just need a new lab puppy.
      Xmas is here and what a nice surprise for Kathleen
   I bet you'll have a lift in just a few weeks in the new year

Nice thought on the puppy, but the three old cats that are already here would probably shread him before he got to shread stuff. 

If I make her lay & sit on the floor to work on her car htis winter, that would probably work to get the lift.  LOL Tom
