[DML] Re: Vandalized D

["Dave Stragand" <dave.stragand@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For those of you who are forced to keep your car outside, I would really
recommend getting a car cover.  (In the interest of "vendor disclosure",
yes, I do sell them.  However, I won't try to sell anyone a cover here -- I
will simply try to sell you on the IDEA of a cover --ANY COVER-- even from
Wal-Mart or the like.)
 
When you put a good tied-down or locked cover on your D, you hide the make,
model, and most distinguishing characteristics of the car.  It averts the
curious, and simply just hides the fact the vehicle underneath is a
DeLorean, and that alone helps solve a lot of the problems inherent with
leaving your D outside.  Add to that the weather protection that a cover
provides, and you really would be crazy to go without one.  
 
I believe every major vendor carries D covers of different fabrics, colors
and styles, and the discount stores have 'generic' covers that do a decent
job (but do not fit anywhere like a tailored cover).  A cover lock, bungee,
or piece of rope will help keep the cover on the car, and discourage cover
thieves or 'peekers'. Prices range from around $30 for a generic cover up to
around $270 for tailored covers in specialized fabrics.  The investment is
well worth the price, and anything is better than nothing. Cheap protection
is still better than none at all.
