Ok.  Thanks guys.  Maybe one of those shelters that Wal-mart sells.  I'll 
decide soon.  Might just keep it in the garage, where I keep it now.  I wonder 
if my Hyundai daily driver could handle one of those remote starters.  It's got 
so many electrical glitches now that I think the car's brain would fry.

a car cover will prevent damage when  in fact is causes damage. Also car covers 
will hold moisture in and cause dew  under the cover when stored outside.
