    Excellent video. Just use a couple of 8x 3/4" self tapping ITW or TEC screws to hold the faulty connection together. and your set. Thanks for sharing

    Hi there, can you provide an update on this car shelter? Is it still holding up well? I have a Model Y and want to order one, but wanted to confirm whether you would still recommend it. Also, do you have to take the cover off to charge at home?

    I am in SoCal too and would LOVE this! The sun is tearing the paint job up on my luxury Infiniti QX80. Unfortunately the manufacturer said the largest one they have is not tall enough for my SUV. I'm considering just building a 2"x8" box frame to sit the carport on to provide the additional height, but then I'll have a gap on the front and rear. Maybe I can get creative and sew some additional material on the front and back to cover it up.

    I wouldn’t recommend this for heavy snow climates, I live in western ny and we’ve been bit with several snow storms recently and mine collapsed despite 4 12” heavy duty tent stakes and 4 70lb tube sand bags on it, it was fine until we got a lot of snow, I’ve contacted them and I’m waiting to see but the canopy is a total loss and thankfully I didn’t end up storing my car inside otherwise I would have had a damaged vehicle, it almost fell on me as well, take away the heavy snow and it was fine, problem is the snow doesn’t come off it it just sits on it and it’s too tall reach snow on top, snow turned to ice, do your research before you get one

    The Ikuby carport is rated for light snow. Most shelters are rated for light snow regardless of what they claim. Do not use it in snowy weather. Just keep the carport open at both ends.

    @Ilir Lecaj The frame is holding strong but put self tapping screws everywhere you see the tabs connecting the poles together. They will come out if you don’t reinforce the frames additionally. Also make sure you install on a level surface or the carport won’t close all the way down without putting alot pressure and force.

    Is that a Tesla? Woaw, I thought when it was so quiet and noticed the T. It looks so regular like a Ford Focus or alike. I thought they were supposed to be a luxury E.V. Then I suppose Environmentalist folk want something minimalist. I haven't seen one here in Ireland or Europe.

    It's hideous. Not sure why Tesla likes to make ugly cars when you have plenty of other companies adding simulated grilles and providing much more attractive designs. If the future is this ugly, I don't want it.
