This is where I park mine:


The 2006 Chevy Impala and 1993 Chevy S10 get the driveway. I just like not having to move my Jeep if I'm behind the Impala and my stepmom wants to go somewhere. It's also nice not to have my stepmom have to move her car if I want to go somewhere and she's parked behind me.

My sister lives in one of those neighborhoods. They dictate what kind
of grass you can grow, type of mailbox, fence etc. I couldn't handle it.
Back on subject - mine sits outside under a pine tree. I hate cleaning
those needles out.

Instead of paying garage rental fees, just undercoat it, wax it, and put a nice car cover on it. That's what I'd do...

It varies for me, really depends which ever vehicle im working on. Ill park it in the garage to get shade and some fans. My jeep stays outside msot of the time though and the firebird stays in the garage. As for those subdivision rules and whatever they were trying to start that **** here but we keep refusing to sign it so they cant impose stupid *** rules. I swear if I signed it my neighbors would tell me Id have to park my "monstrosity" of a truck in the garage and out of sight and that I cant weld or use my grinder. So yea F that.

I've heard of something like that happening. On another forum I'm part of, a member had just bought a brand new Ford F150. Well his HOA (Home Owner's Association) wouldn't let anybody in the neighborhood park a pick-up truck in their driveway, it has to be parked in the garage. Some snobby community I guess. Well, it wouldn't fit in the garage, so they kept giving him fines. That's pure and total bullspit. I would move out in a heartbeat.

Mine has a nice cozy spot in the garage away from this brutal Texas sun. The paint is soo pearly I shudder when I have to leave it out in the lot at work.

My XJ lives outside all day, every day all year round.. with never a wash (unless rain/snow/puddles). The only times she gets to come inside is when I bring it in the shop to work on, or go to the movie theater and park in the underground (barely fits, always have to remove the cb antenna).

She usually stays parked on the front yard all winter (saves shuffling cars, being 1 lane wide driveway), my 1968 Amx project is the only one to fit in the garage..

Not the newest pic but will do:


Amx seeing some sun before the darkness again:
