Good luck on the sale Jimmy, I hope it goes to a good home either way. Curious though if I may ask, why is it not being used as much?
Because it has really nice paint and interior, I keep it under a car cover. When it is time to walk out and go somewhere it is just easier to get into one of the other cars without a cover and just drive off. If I take the Squash I have to roll up the cover, put it in the trunk, get home, get it out of the trunk and cover it again.
So it is just a "quick and dirty" kind of thing.
Some weekends I'll pull the cover off and I end up driving it every where I go for that weekend and just cover it back up Sunday evening, but usually it just sits out there under its cover.
China is such a mutt that she doesn't require [deserve] a cover, plus I don't really have to worry where I park her when I'm out. I always find a nice wide open spot for the Squash....
During the week I always have tools and parts with me, so I use a wagon or my pickup.
The wife gets the side of the garage that a car can fit in, so a cover is the next best way for me to keep a nice car nice.....
