A house for our 4WD

What is the problem that most car owners have, next to ever increasing gas prices? For us, it would be a parking space. Right now, our car is just parked along the streets since we don’t have one of those metal garages where we can safely park our cars. This is really not an ideal setup since parking the car along the streets makes our car a good target for carnappers. Also, with this setup, our car is not safe from accidents like it being accidentally hit by a tricycle (which is quite common in our area) or by another car.

Just before my husband left for Majuro three weeks ago, he discovered a deep scratch and a slight vent on the door of our car. We really can’t pin point just anyone and we have nothing to blame for we know that it is an accident and partly it is our fault since we are the one who is responsible in making sure that our car is safe by at least housing it in one of those metal carports.

Since we really don’t have the budget right now to hire for a laborer who can build us one of those steel carports, my husband has been doing some research on how can we protect our car even if we are on a budget. And he was happy to discover Steel Master since we can order metal building kits from them and the metals and the steels have predrilled holes and bolts already which is the only fastener required to construct the garage. This means that even my husband, with the help of my dad, can do it without hiring a laborer. This will really save us big bucks and finally, we will be able to have a garage for our car.
