If I had the room & the money I would get one. I think they're pretty cool.

I've heard of a guy in Orlando that has a stash of muscle cars from the 60's with like 8 miles on them and what not. Rumor is he has them in something like that.

You know what. Let me chime in again. This isn't quite what I need, but I need something. I live in a rental while I finish school and sell my house. I have a carport with carpenter bees. I have yet to get rid of them. They drop their crap on my car in the late spring and summer.

What other potential similar items could be set up in my carport that would provide a layer between the bees and my car? Anyone have a thought. I need to be able to come and go normally as this is my DD.



On the note of the car capsule. I watched the video of the set up on their website. Looks to me that you have to continuously run the fan to keep it inflated and the air moving. Just something to keep in mind. Cost money and makes noise.

If you just want to protect from droppings on a car parked outside, you may want to consider an outdoor car cover. The problem though, is the fact that you should only place it on a freshly cleaned car with meticulous technique, and even then, you risk some micro scratching. If you don't care about the micro scratching, use it. If you want a scratch free car, there really is no good solution in this case, IMO.
