Peter,
I bought one of the ones advertised in Hemmings at Carlisle a couple of
years ago. The plastic cover is still in good shape after two winters and
two summers. The biggest downside is that its almost impossible to keep the
mice out, and you absolutely have to vent the inside of it, or it is very
moist inside. I tried to seal mine up to keep the mice out, and found
everything inside dripping wet all the time. I ended up rigging the door to
remain partly open, and just let the mice have the run of the place. I
think it would be better called a carport than a garage..
