Driveway vs Garage Owners

Lone Wolf 75 · 12-15-2009, 08:29 PM

Although it was never a priority when house shopping last year, I bought a house with a garage and I am happy I did. I never did understand why people have garages and don't use them to park cars inside, most people in my neighborhood park in their driveways instead of the garage.

It is so nice to be able to get in the Z in the morning without having to de-ice the windshield and windows, worry about hail, a tree falling on it, etc. It's also very nice knowing that it is relatively safe from vandals and thieves (not that I live in a bad neighborhood, but a nice car parked out in the open is always a target). An added benefit is that my car stays cleaner longer by not being outside all the time.
