And for good reason....

A) it's ugly...

but more importantly,

B) if you had that puppy around your precious mini and the wind blew it into your car, you'd be coming to see me.

Many times when the wind picked up, I grabbed Oscar and pulled him into the shop not taking a chance the wind would rip my cheap little building out of the ground and smash my car.

I didn't read the drive on part... nonetheless, I'd still be afraid a huge wind would still push it into the car... perhaps not. Guess we'll never find out....

I bought the same canopy from Costco about 6 years ago. Don't know if they still sell them though.
