Car Cover

[CanaryGT]

So now thats its gonna be winter and Im not gonna drive my stang, I need a car cover. Im looking into California Car Covers, my lady said she would buy me one.


But I cannot decide. Do I want Custom Weave or just the standard Super weave? Anybody have any experience?

Um yea, it is winter EVERYWHERE EXCEPT WHERE YOU HAPPEN TO LIVE!!!!

Gonna take it up to the mountains? Oh heck no but why are you afraid of 78 degrees?

 

[mygreengt]

haha yea why do you need a cover for winter in Arizona?

 

[CanaryGT]

I dont live in phoenix. I live in prescott. It snows etc.

 

[ttocs]

oh heck I thought you were in the valley? That is a little different then.

Dated a girl that grew up in prescott, man that chic was a FREAK!

They all are here man. Its that small town syndrome. Lady in the street but a freak in the bed....

this one was a strange one indeed. Abigail. Raised in a HEAVILY religeous family and when her parents got divorced at age 25 because her dad cheated on her mom, she decided to give the dark side a try. At age 26, I was the 2nd guy she ever was with and the first guy must have been a chump. I have some strange memories of her...

anyway back to the topic. I saw a nice one at a show last weekend for $75 that if this was up earlier I would have checked for ya.

 

[CanaryGT]

Yeah man, whatever you find out let me know.

Blowing life into this topic (because of the car covers, not the Prescott-girls)...

I'm looking for a good car cover too. I have a European one but it's too small... I need one that has a good fit on my 98GT.

Does anybody have a good tip for a good car cover? I'm looking for a good price because I need to take shipping to Europe into account too.

If it's going to be outside, get the Noah and don't look back. I've had it for over 6 years, through 6 NJ winters, and the car looks just as clean as it did when I covered it 3 months previous. It is soft inside, and doesn't get moldy, and the outside is UV resistant, waterproof, iceproof, etc.

Its the best $220 I've spent on my car.

I have had a great experience with my american muscle one. Keeps every single spec of dust and water out on my little black beast throughout the winter. Worth the money and it has a cool mustang horse and ford logo on the front.

No need for me to spend much on a cover thats only real purpose is to keep a little rain out occasionally. My dog's done got it and chewed it up lol.

Yea, as I posted above, I have a Noah cover from California Car cover. Best $200 I've spent on the car. If you are going to be keeping your car outdoors over the winter, this is the best one you can get. I always detail the car before winter, cover it up, and when I uncover it in the spring it looks just like when I covered it. Last year over 2ft of snow piled on the car and it sat there for weeks. Once it melted, I had to get something out of the car, so I uncovered it and it didn't have a drop of water on it. I've had the cover outside for 6 years and there isn't even one spot of mold on it despite being outdoors.

I highly recommend it. In fact my friend bought one right when he got his '99 vert, and he thanks me all the time telling me the car stays so fresh with that cover.
