Default garaged or outdoors?

I just wanted to see how many people on this board garage there cars and how many park them outside. I'm used to parking my car in a garage but I am soon moving to an Apartment complex and am uneasy about parking it outdoors.

The Honda stays in the garage with my wifes Firebird, and the commuter (02 Escape) gets rained on outside in the driveway.

I don't drive the del Sol in the rain any more, which is a little ridiculous given its current condition (not garaged for > 4 years!!).....but when its all fixed up properly and painted, it'll never purposefully see rain.

Personally, there are way too many people with a ton of time, money and emotion invested in their cars that keep them at apartments or in the driveway. There are also too many of the same people who have their **** jacked or keyed. I know there's not much a lot of people can do about that, but I would be VERY hesitant about going back to apartment living, if I didn't have a garage.

luckily my dad has a company car, so during the summer he lets park in the garage to avoid possible hail damage, but unfortunatly he doesnt like scraping off his windows in the winter, so i gotta park outside then, but hey 50/50 is better than nothing!!

i usually park in the driveway, but my driveway continues in my back yard. I always park in front of another car because we put 3 of our 4 cars in the back. So in order to steal my car, you have to steal my mom's and my sister's cars first . Oh yea, my car is also right next to my window, so...dont try it!
