We park both of our cars in the garage. We have a huge storage building with a loft on our property though...that's where we store tools, lawnmowers,etc. Not much of a pack rat though either so that really helps. I've seen one neighbors garage when it was open and it has looked the same for 7 years (at least)PACKED top to bottom with what looks like CRAP!! I don't understand how people can live like that. They have a small pathway that they can walk to get to the door that goes into the house from the garage. Things are not stacked neatly either...some of it looks like it going to fall over. While their nice vehicles sit outside in the hot sun!! I don't get it. If they go missing I'll know where to look!!
Parking only here! Not allowed to store anything in the garage. The garage is sacred territory for my other half. Luckily, I do get to park my car in there.
We use ours for parking. We're the oddballs in our neighborhood too...LOL. Hee hee!
I'd like to live someplace warm so I can store my '69 Camaro z-28 in the garage and leave my daily car outside (working on getting a hot rod to fix up, but don't know how to work on cars...guess I can learn LOL).
You know what people do here in Florida...they put down a track at the garage door and put sliding screen doors in it...so they can be out in the garage and it be like a screend in room. Even if they use it to park a car in I have seen this.
I see people just sitting in there of an evening watching the kids play...people working out in their garages.
both i guess. 2 car garage. one side is being occupied by a friend's vintage car. I park my car on the other side in the winter but not in the summer. in the summer it becomes dh's hobby room. i don't want his junk, errr stuff in the house. it is well organized though. dh's truck gets the driveway all year long.

Here in Ohio, we have screened-in patios. That way, it doesn't smell like gasoline when we're enjoing the fresh air. Because, what if the children breathe in gasoline fumes??? We certainly cannot have that. They should be wearing helmets and all protective gear while playing, anyway. And we cannot expose them to gasoline fumes! Respirators for every FL kid! You MUST have heard the radio PSA's...

I thought it odd myself when I saw it because in Texas its kind of a red neck thing to do to sit in the garage and watch what goes on in the street...
Some of the same people who have these screens on their garage, have screened in porches on the back of their homes as well.

Why would there be fumes in the garage? You're not running the car in the garage--you're parking it.
