Mine sits outside all the time. It is garaged at my office....... The Mrs.'s has garage priority

That's OK though as we use that as the main entrance most of the time anyway, and the crap that gets dragged in and out have put a multitude of scratches on her's, while mine stays untouched in the wide expanse of a 3 car driveway. No bicycles, skateboads, trash bags, grocery bags, you name it..... I don't want the garage - - at least not until the kids leave the house

My Vette is outside and unlocked overnight. When the top is down I'll pull into the garage. When I hear of hail and storms it's inside.

My neighbor leaves the keys in his cars in the driveway. Just that kind of 'hood I guess.
