Enrico ready for winter

Enrico is now happily ensconced in his new nest. At the suggestion of several Barners, I purchased a car bubble to protect my California Coupe from the harsh upstate NY winter climate. Here's a look at what I ended up with:

I have heard of those but never seen one. How do you like it so far?

Very much. Easy set up, fills in maybe 3 min. Uses 12v computer-type fan, so not much power consumption. Got mine from Amazon for abt $300.

It comes all folded up, so I unpacked it & inflated it empty and left it running for a day to get the wrinkles out. I had some corrosion concerns from last winter and wanted to get this rust-free CA vehicle out of the damp & salty environment (my driver car brings in quite a lot of slush).

Once your drag that road salt into the garage and it soaks in the concrete, it is there for good and rusts everything near it. I layed down plastic and covered it with good used carpet, and this helped a lot, but I still see some rust on any metal tools and parts near the floor. I was hoping to clean out the garage, insulate it, and lay down more plastic, but the summer was way too short to get it done.

A couple guys in our club have those air bags, and they like them.
