    I have to pay an $100 bucks for a garage at my apartment, its the best $100 bucks I spend every month even if I dont use it that month. I Cant wait to get my first house with the garage and the drive-way as the main focal point of the decision.

    You have AC/furnace in the garage and ductwork, and you want to put portable unit in there? Just punch a exaust&return (put some filter over the return) in the ductwork to feed portion of the cold air in the garage (after you seal the garge with decent door install)...way simpler.

    ChelseaFC !!! I didn't want it to be rude I am genuinely sorry if that was rude APiDA Online its just when I think of a person who has owned so many "fine" automobiles I didn't think there could be a woman who would be able to stand that, I know every woman in my family can't.
