Odd thing to be that annoyed by. I don’t understand people who obsess over the way other people’s houses look. Unless you have an expensive car or a project car it seems like a waste of good space to store a car in the garage. But hey, to each their own.
If I had a garage it would totally be used for shop space and storage. Most people here seem to use their garages as additional space. My car can survive the rain just fine outside. The tools and equipment I wish I had space for, not so much.
Shame you let other people’s reasonable decisions bother you. Not everyone wants to obsess over opening a car.
I mean, a garage or covered parking is better than leaving a vehicle out in the elements in a fair few cases (hail storms, snow - especially in plow areas or places where they salt the roads, etc). It’s nice in inclement weather to be able to get into a vehicle dry and not exposed to the elements. Your insurance may be cheaper because you aren’t parking a vehicle in the open where it could be vandalized or stolen.
Public space used for the storage of personal items, paid for by tax or rate payers…
A car sitting outside all the time will absolutely wear much faster than one that’s in a garage. I mean people can do what they want, I don’t care, but it’s not just a cosmetic thing to keep your car indoors when you’re not using it.
I don’t care what their house looks like. But it does make it more difficult to navigate the street when they park at the curb, blocking the view on the curves and at the stop sign. And park right at the entrance so it’s a hassle to get in and out because that’s also a curve.
When I moved in I was worried the truck wouldn’t be able to make it to my house because they park on both sides of the street. Thankfully I did it during the day so they were mostly gone.
