yea its a car capsule. used to keep your car fresh, circulates fresh air in while car is in storage. you dont use it like a garage and park your car in it everyday. just get a good car cover. this is for high dollar cars/collectables.

yeah, this is not for a stand alone garage, it will fail if left outside in the elements. its a huge PITA to put a car in and out of one on a daily basis. car must be perfectly clean top to bottom before entering one or it gets gunked up really quick. its for circulating air in side the capsule so that dust cannot "settle" on the car for LONG TERM storage. as pointed out in this thread by another member i have one and am speaking from experience. and its called a "CARKUNE" (spelling)

I think he was hinting at it floating in the sky somewhere with the car inside. or perhaps lighting it on fire?

My uncle has two of these for his classic cars, but they arnt meant to replace a garage. They are meant to keep the dust level down, and to make sure no one touches it. It a very simple idea. It works just like a moon bounce thing.

well i see you and that guy went to the same school because your thought patterns seem to be just as jacked up. for one, it would be hard to make anything fly with nitrogen because it's heavier than air. the second part of that is also stupid because nitrogen is an inert gas. it won't burn. it's actually used to snuff out fires. i believe the element you're looking for is HELIUM...slightly different than nitrogen.

Actually, with regards to explosions and flight-capabilities, I believe he was looking for HYDROGEN... Helium is inert so it won't burn either... and it's a good thing, too. Imagine all the tragic children's celebrations: explosive balloons + candles = Hindenbirthday!!





Edit...Nitrogen's technically not an inert gas, either... only the Noble elements are... but it's "inert enough" to make your point...mostly...
