Default The Car umbrella

Hey Guys,

Saw this article this morning. Looks pretty cool for anyone who has their car sit outside during the day or night.

Enjoy!.

Looks pretty cool, but the 3.5MS/7.8MPH limitation is pretty major.

Those hail storms come through here with a nice strong wind that takes that thing and sends it else-where, then pounds the car with hail.........Then you get the insurance claim bill from the car your umbrella just scratched all up.......

Yes, my wife says I look at the negatives now and again.......

It's interesting, but I think they will have a tough go trying to sell this at $400. Had one existed 10 years ago I might have bought one for my corvette daily driver that sits in 10 plus hours of Texas sun during the week at work.

You've got to be kidding. I get enough grief just putting a cover on in my work parking lot.
