    An imponderable poll

    I've been out working in the garage for several days in temperatures in the teens getting stuff put back together so the garage could be cleaned up enough to get a car inside (that's enough redneck jokes - I've heard 'em).
    Now, for the first time in over 28 years, my wife's car is in the garage so what would you expect your wife's reaction to be.

    I wish I had a garage so I could put all my wife's stuff in and get my basement turned into the mancave that it so deserves to be!

    Don't feel bad Kaw, I have a 1982 Blazer on stands in front of my garage waiting for better weather so I can weld some plate in behind the steering box where it broke loose. I put a remote start on the wifes van so she wouldn't complain too much about parking outside.

    I couldn't vote. I've always been a firm believer in parking vehicles in the garage. Neither my wife's car nor my pickup, ever spends a night outside, unless we're on the road. I do have a couple of other outbuildings for all my other important stuff though!

    An imponderable poll

    People put things in garages other than crap you haven't seen in 10 years and never plan on using again?


    I can't remember the thing about the fingerless monkeys because I mistakenly switch to Tapatalk2 and it sucked and when I went back to Tapatalk v1 it was erased.

    I couldn't vote either, one car in the garage already, the rest I use as a workspace at time. Not that much in there that's not used.

    Is that what a garage is for?
    I though it was for putting all that stuff you want to sell in a "garage sale".

    Four car garage, three vehicles in and the other side is the catch all (ZTR, push mowers, edgers, riding mower and assorted crap). Motorhome sits out in the drive. Our old house had parking for 6 cars and a motorhome in garages spaces...I miss those garages.

    A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
