as for everyone else who has chimed in on the thread, I dont mind the snow every once in a while, and I still have fun in it. However, I REALLLLLLY dont like my car outside the garage when the snow hits... I just moved home from school in Arizona, missing the sunshine! You west coasters are lucky

I'd be hoping that no moisture was between the cover and the car.... I woudln't care much for having my cover stuck tight and frozen to the car.
