Depends where you are. A carport or garage that keeps sun off the car
is better for your paint job and helps keep the sun from overheating
the interior. If you live where there is salt on the roads in winter
on the other hand, parking in a heated garage such as one finds in
office buildings is murder on bodywork. An unheated garage or your
pole barn is OK.
