Ones that are too big or too small will give animals space to live in your car and the moisture issue can cause the sheet metal to corrode. The one from Subaru is designed to fit our cars properly and will keep moisture out.

Regardless, it is still recommended to take the car out at least once a month and drive it around until it is fully warmed up. My friends who park their cars in the winter take their cars out on any particularly nice day where there isn't any snow on the roads to the drive-thru car wash and then park it again.
Yeah I was going to buy the one from subaru. I'm just wondering if there's any spot on the car I should watch for moisture buildup.
