I like how you can't be tempted to take it out of hibernation. Mine makes it too easy.

Mine went up top in late November as the temps dropped and the tires didn't grip too well. Oh well--only eleven days until the days start to get longer!!!--Bob

Bob, I can't tell from your pic but how did you handle the garage door opener and tracks? What is your ceiling height?

i did not measure the hight of the garage door equipment. As above the interior hight is 13.3- so what ever a normal garage door lift comes off the ceiling. The tracks are not an issue at all they are out side the lift, but as you can tell from the pic I have quit a bit if leeway in vertical height.

I like the C7.R cover. For kicks I called my local Chevy Parts department to get a quote and almost threw up when I heard the price (almost a whole car payment.) So no cover it is for 3 months!
