Family,

anyone store their car outside (covered under a tarp or something) over the winter?

in Ottawa our winters are from Dec to April with temperatures dipping to as low as -40 (F and C).

I would appreciate some thoughts and thank you in advance.

car cover, covered by a blue poly tarp, bungeed down. open the windows a tad. go to a marine supply place and purchase a couple or 3 DRY-Z-AIRS. they help wick the moisture out of the air. make sure you place the d-z-as in plastic basins. check and empty the tubs once in a while. a couple of packets of D-CON (or similar rat/mouse poison) under the car will help keep the rodents out.
