Default Whacked weather

I see the thunderstorms are back, I am a bit worried about the Explorer being outside. Do you ever get hail big enough to dmage a car in the Northwest burbs?

Somtimes, but not THAT often. Usually if it's a thunderstorm its too warm for hail, but I have seen it.

Do you want Erich's number just in case?

heheh, I know Erich can fix it, but I am getting worried now. I got here just when the storms were dissapearing last year so I didnt have to worry. But now I am thinking wow! what a shitty thing to happen if you have room for only one car in tha garage

Options? maybe I can use my EZup when a bad storm is coming?

Still worried

It depends on how unlucky you are...in the past 6 years I've had the roof replaced 2 times due to hail damage! (the second time was less than a year after replacing) Also been unluck to have cars damaged by hail...fortunately not the S.
