- That is one hell of a price! I was renting a garage for my Charger for $120 a month and it was a piece of shit. Cold as fuck, holes in the fascia, where snow got in. Not to mention the squirrel that lived in the rafters that used to pee on my car. And lets not forget my pet rat that used to run across my feet when I opened the garage door from the outside.
Im sure you will have no problem renting every spot out Tim!
EDIT: Obviously I wont be storing my Charger there because I no longer have it but I read about attack dogs running around, I figure I would ask in case it slipped anybody else's mind.....do these dogs like to jump on cars by any chance? Anytime I kept a car in my yard during the winter, my dogs (pitbulls) used to love to jump on the hood and lay on the roof of the car. I had scratches all over it but I didnt care much cuz the cars were beaters. The dogs are professionally trained and have better manners then most people do about cars. These dogs are around $5 million dollars worth of collector cars every night and if they werent trained not to mess with cars I couldn't have them in the building.. They would only jump on a car pursuing an intruder, and in that case I would forgive them for the scratches. No bad guy to eat, no cars get scratched.. My dogs aren't like an untrained pet, they are very disciplined and know the boundries of their training.
Video's of one of the dogs I have trained. You can see she does 100% what she is told to do and doesn't even think about doing what she wants,only what she is told. This also applies to the cars, the dogs are taught that cars are off limits unless in a pursuit.

Tim Lol that is good to know. For some reason, I thought of junk yard type dogs when I read it. | |

Those videos are from the Regional Cahmpionship. She is the 2011 five state regional protection champion.. Her daughters who protect this building are 100 times more dangerous than her. She is an arm dog, they are "kill the guy" dogs. | |

If I have to be around the daughters, I just ignore them. No eye contact or even looking at them. They just lie there and watch me quietly if I ignore them. A big ass fence between us, of course, lol. | |

I dont like using a cover, used 1 the first year and it put marks in my paint. i will use my cover over night if i just cleaned the car for a show the next day but that is it. one year i left it on all winter in the garage and got mega holograms in the paint from the damn cover. had to buff the holograms out in the spring. i won't use a cover for long periods of time after that. | |

| Just went out to the garage and my girl is dead. Should I worry about charging it or just leave it until she's ready to come out again? | |

If you dont plan on starting it and let it run until its warmed up every few days then id say just leave the battery. I used to warm mine up every 2 days when it was this cold out just to keep the battery charged. | |

| That's kinda what I was thinking. It's not like it will sit that long as I just put it away a few weeks ago. Maybe I'll pull it out on the next warm day and jump it and let it run a bit and then remember to start it once a week. | |

Put a battery tender on it. Running your battery down shortens it's life. | |

| At this point will it hurt it to just leave it dead until spring? | |
