Well, time to get out our old California Car Cover pix. Two winters now, and cover is like new. Ice and snow just slides off. Recommended. A2Jack.

far too much work to "brush" 2 feet of snow!

I have the same cover on my smart. It is the Noah model from California Car Covers. I have used several models of the Noah on cars and even pick-ups over the years. In my opinion, it is the best outdoor cover on the market. I live in Florida, so no snow, but our summer heat and humidity is terrible.

The california pop top has worked well for me. My smart is an out door car and the cover saves on scraping in icy weather. don't use it all the time don't like to use any cover if the car is too dirty keeping the windows clear seems like a good compromise to me. The topper is two winters on it and still looks fine the smaller size shakes out easy to fold up in the tailgate. works great in really hot weather as well.
