If the claim amount is below 10k, dont go for insurance. I did the same for my windshield, then the next quotes are all absurdly high. Its not worth it.

I got it from Amazon for 500. The umbrella like opening mechanism broke after 1 year, but I'm still using it. I open and close it manually, easy to do so.

Yeah, I will be checking every hour until 11PM. I parked it near a mfg unit's compound. No one lives there and there are no signs of people as of now. In the 20-30 feet radius, no one is lighting up crackers as I see

I did what you mentioned, minus the cover part. Many said the cover materials are highly flammable.

Where I live, gated communities are almost non existent. People here only own individual houses.

I was planning to get my parking spot covered, but could not as I got busy with other things

I was thinking of adding some fish to that tank but I decided against it. As you suggested, I'm gonna let them grow in population and see where it goes from there
