That's pretty safe from wind damage!

I like it.

I find it so much easier to just take apart and pile it in.

That fits in there nicely.

Hauling in an uncovered bed sucks when the the weather man is wrong. I spent 45 minutes under the canopy of a BP station last year waiting for it to stop. It never rained at home or at the field, just in between.

I was in good company, there were two dune buggies and a flock of motorcycles there as well.

I got stuck at my field this past summer. A lot of the guys had campers and were able to leave. I had my 50cc plane and had to wait it out. With my new 35% plane, and travel for IMAC, I'm going to have a cover ready to go in case of rain. A camper and/or a trailer just don't make sense for me at this point, so I'm going to get creative.

I live in Vegas. Rainfall about .000005"/yr. No worries
