But instead, I'm willing to buck the trend and say

Looks great, Jeremy!!! Congrats, buddy!
Now that is pretty darn funny…. Thanks Gogar

Anything else you'd like to know?
Thanks Danny - but I really don’t need it to be 72 degrees. While that would be nice I have no real expectations that It will get low - I’d be happy with 10 degrees. It’s rated for 400 sq feet – which is about the size of my garage. I have insulated garage doors – insulated side door/Attic – no windows – so I guess we will see. If it doesn’t cool – I’ll be happy to report back that I am a failure at life and garage cooling.

Greg Smith Equipment - Bigfoot - it’s great stuff - easy to clean - doesn’t buckle when you put a hot car in - didn’t have to prep much. Look on ebay – sometimes they will throw a lot on there - and when you call the store directly they will honor the price (mine was around a 1.39 sq foot)

All I am looking for - and no - really don’t need to heat… 
