    That’s a good point, we do have hail and tornados where I live. But I guess growing up poor we just accepted damage to vehicles. Not that I’m saying it’s ideal, just that I hadn’t really considered it an avoidable part of life.

      Don’t forget it helps deter thieves as well. Smash and grabs, catalytic converter thefts, etc. Also if you have other vehicles like bicycles/motorcycles then you’ll definitely want them inside a garage vs outside where they’re visible and more vulnerable.

        My bikes and lawnmower are in a really small shed. I do wish we had a bigger shed though mainly because we have to stack the bikes on top of the lawnmower so it’s a big hassle with my wife and I both being disabled to unpack and repack the shed every time the grass needs cut. So a garage would help with that too. I guess I want a small garage now, you’ve sold me haha. Still can’t afford it though.
