I am wondering if you had the same cover that I am talking about, maybe they have changed them or the regional supply is different? The material they use for the BUDGE covers is basically the same stuff they use for a hazmat suit. I have a motorcycle rain suit made out of the same stuff. It is thin and very soft and will not scuff the surface, it is just oo light weight of a cloth. The whole thing wads up into a little ball and stuffs in a bag the size of a basketball. It is breathable but completely water proof. The material itself could not freeze. Also, you may have one size too large on your car, although these are not form fitting and are a little baggy. I think this helps to concel the identity of the car. There are plastic grommet holes in the center of the edge of the cover that you are supposed to use a bunjie cord to connect from under the car. Once you do this the cover is NOT coming off. I have used one of these for years without a problem. I used to use it mostly when a hail storm would come, I would cover my car with goose down comforters, blankets and even pillows and then put the cover over it and bunjie it together, after the storm both the cover itself and everything underneath would be bone dry. For the money you just can't get a better cover. I think they are something like $29 or so. - VB >From: deloreanernst@xxxxxxx >Reply-To: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >To: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: Re: [DML] Car Cover (cheap) >Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2005 02:02:24 EDT > >In a message dated 9/18/2005 5:07:16 PM Eastern Standard Time, >videobob@xxxxxxxxxxx writes: >BUDGE sells one at Wal-Mart real cheap and it works great.>> > >I disagree.
