Car cover
Since I park my car outside and since it has been key'd at work.... i'm thinking about buying a damn car cover and lugging it around with me. Anyone know of any brands... this was the cheapest option. What do you think?

There may be cheaper ones that are universal. They do blow off if its super windy out since it won't be as snug as a vehicle specific cover.

They scratch the shit out of your car unless its clean when you put it on and even then dirt can get blown up and in.

Outside use?
Covers are nice but even with indoor use, there will be some dust build-up underneath if left on for a long time -- fabric has to breathe to let moisture out. And speaking of moisture... a cover even slightly damp from fog, sprinkles, etc. is a huge PITA.
Tough spot you're in. Hope you find a viable solution to protect your car.
