Only thing I heard is don’t let it idle due to condensation build up. All I heard don’t know because I drive mine unless there is a lot of snow coming then she goes away for a week or two. Cars pulls extra hard in cold weather.

I'm with you. I can never understand why some guys park their car for months and watch it depreciate.
My early '10 SS is over 12 years old and still looks like new. Drive and enjoy, It's not a collector car.

A 2019 4x4 and Suv are good enough for winter. A cammed ...fbo geared and stalled Camaro on drag radials is fairweather only. My car looks brand new inside and out....no winter driving preserves that. Think what you want but heavy winters and tons of road salt will work against you.

How did that cover do outdoors? I’ve thought about that before but it seems like you run a real risk of getting dirt under the cover, along with wind moving the cover around, scratching the hell out of the paint. At least this is the scenario I came up with in my feeble mind. I’d love to hear how it worked out from someone who actually tried it.

I believe they make an indoor and outdoor style cover. Not sure which one is in the pic.
