[QUOTE=Sixseven;816083]Why does a modern (new) car need to be stored indoors in Riverside, CA?
Are you kidding? Ever see what the sun does to a car out there? In SoCal and in the desert? Or in Arizona or the Deep South? Not pretty
Especially the plastic trim that's the first thing that bites the dust.
When you live in Phoenix, and you have to carry a rag in your pocket to open the outside door handle of your car because it is so damn hot in the summer time you'll burn your hand on the handle, think what that is doing to your trim, paint, dash board, upholstery.
No. A garage anywhere is always a GOOD thing. A car is too expensive to just sit outside all the time.
