Default Car Covers

Only have a 2 car garage and had to move my 2004 Honda Minivan outside (Cherry condition). My 98 c5 vert (also cherry) and my wifes new Lexus occupy the garage. Can and should I buy a car cover for the mini van? I know vett owners are probably very knowlegable on this subject. One of my friend says yes and another says the wind will move the cover and cause paint damage from chaffing. Would like your experiances. Thanks, Joe PS. will only use the minivan about every 2-3 weeks.

Cherry Mini Van?????? I wouldn't announce that! Just joking. My Z06 and a TT V12 is garaged and the wifes Mercedes and my 89 Corvette are outside here in California. The 89 Corvette has an outdoor cover on it. I use California Car Cover Company for my car covers. The cars in the garage are covered as well. They are very knoweldgeable and make covers to fit the vehicle. I'm not sure what your weather is like but they should be able to answer your questions.

Good luck and don't speed in the Mini Van !
