Default Portable Garage, Car Ports

My house doesn't have a garage, so its a bitch when it rains all the time and I have to constantly wash her.

I'm looking for a cheap car port, or vinyl garage, or something. I really need some suggestions.

Do you have any land? Tuff Shed's are real durable and a great buy. I think they're pretty reasonable price wise, too...

you could get one of those car bubble things that you drive onto a platform and blow the thing up with they supplied air compressor and it forms a clear bubble over your car...I dont know though if they are made for outdoor use.

Does a car cover still get wet? I'm not sure what it's made of.

Well if car covers don't let water through(sp?) then that could be an option...

Does your neighborhood have an HOA? If so you'll want to talk to them before taking action with anything.

Yes, and they are a big pain in the ***. Especially when you go to take it off the car in the morning and it is covered with dew.

Edit: Just saw Steeda97's post basically saying the same thing. Haha.
