I live in the N. VA area, and they are calling for a mix of rain and snow Wednesday and Thursday. Good thing I sured up the storage bay for the Camaro yesterday. It's a 12 1/2' X 18' bay. I'll probably keep it in there for a few days this first time, until the roads are dry again. My question is this: I haven't been able to get a good quality car cover yet, do I need to cover it if it's just for a few days? It has sat in my garage before for a few days not covered, and still looked clean after taking it out, just a slight coating of dust. Any advice is appreciated.

no need to cover it, if it is inside and only for a few days

It appears the southeast is supposed to get hit pretty hard this year... guess mine will be covered in snow and slush all year.

Glad to hear you don't have any dust there. Never believed those old cowboy movies anyway.

Here in Northern Virginia ...we get the worst of the worst ...cold..rainy, snow, etc. etc. This week's storm may have a bit of each for our pleasure. Now Texas.........those hail storms, tornados, ice storms, etc. .....whew.... a pretty fair dose of medicine as well!

Not to be mean ,but What a waste of money, Rain and snow will not hurt the car! I will post you some picks this winter of me plowing thru 6 inches of snow and doing donuts in the parking lots with a smile on my face . To each there own . I guess thats why they make storage units.

Mine is about ready for hibernation too after a long day of washing and waxing. Just need to throw the cover on it
