Oh just let that bitch next door call the town. I'm just looking for an excuse to tell her husband she's been ******* the deli guy at Shoprite for the past year.

Oh yea he's an FRF member for sure

Yes in Northern NJ you get a 4500 sqr ft home on 1/2 acre, 2 car garage and a tent. LOL. You are right about how much protection I'm getting. I kept a cover on my C5 in the garage and now I have to keep the raptor outside because it won't fit. I'm hoping it will help until the crap stops falling off the trees. Then I'll take it down until next spring. But it is fun f-ing with the neighbors.

I'm a little tired but that garage door looks to be Less than 5 ft tall. Buy a smart car or prius

I dont know of any town in Northern NJ except Smokerise that has HOA. Where in Bergen county do you live?

This is what you do. Buy 15 acres with lots of thick trees. Then you can do whatever the hell you want. Like trim trees with a 30-06. We did this yesterday being bored.

This is what this reminds me of. Perfect example

You hit the nail on the head. Love it.

Does the tent look that bad? No.

Would I spend a couple hundred to a couple thousand dollars to have something that looked more permanent (ie. carport) instead of a tent in front of my $1+ million home? Yes

 

[TRAPTOR]

I got it!!!

Go buy ANOTHER tent and put it directly in front of your current tent. You will have a two car tent end to end, then your Raptor should get the WHOLE garage by itself and parked a little crooked so no one could think about parking next to it.

Maybe if it looked more like their gazebo they would be ok with it. A Gazebo Garage made out of fabric?

A two car tent what a great idea, lol. Or maybe I'll upgrade to the two car gazebo garage. Costco here I come.

Point taken but my intentions are to take it down in a week or two after thr pollen stops falling. I am having a lot of fun reading all the opinions here. Remember opinions are like ******** everyone has one.

Thank the good lord that our oak trees have stopped with the pollen here in Austin. Does anyone make an "easy on, easy off" cover that will fit the Raptor?

I kept the cover i had on my 05 scew, it's a little snug but fits the raptor.

I agree with this opinion. In a way, HOAs are like lawyers, everybody likes to hate them...until you need them.

Or you marry one...

Im sorry but the i kinda agree now with the HOA thing so long as it doesnt go overboard. I dont spend as much as i do to have some jacktard paint his house day glo orange and film wildlife movies in his front yard.

For me it comes back to pure $$$$, if it is going to bring down the value of my property im not cool with it. If there is no HOA then im going all weatherman on that ass and having me some good ole boy fun.

Does this really look so bad?

Y not build an extended garage would most likely raise the property value a bit.

Dirty,
"Y not build an extended garage would most likely raise the property value a bit."

A third car garage or a really nice carport are in the plans but for now I wanted something to protect the truck from all the shit in the air.
