Car Cover
Car Cover Is it worth car covering my Bird, she gets driven a couple times a month, but it sits under a car port and just collects debris and dirt. Even after a wash 5 days later its dirty from sitting there. I'll have a garage by summer. Should i put the money into a car cover?

I wouldn't invest in a cover now if you're going to have a garage by this summer, unless you plan to also keep it covered in the garage. I guess it's not a big deal if you can get one cheap, but most of the cheap ones don't do so great in an outdoor environment (depending on how well sheltered your carport is).
I do cover mine in the garage as well, but really only during winter storage. For most of the summer it's too much of a hassle to uncover them every time I want to take a drive. Since you live in FL, winter storage is probably a non-issue so an indoor cover might not make sense unless it's a dusty environment (i.e. a garage that's in frequent use by other vehicles) or you plan to leave the car sit for long periods.
