My house came with a garage. We wanted it, but it wasn't like we had one built for us. I'm a big fan- it's storage, workspace and a place to park.

As a place to park, it's awesome. Instead of worrying about parking where I won't interfere with the plow guy too much, shoveling to get to my car, scraping the ice and then fogging up the interior or using the AC because the car is just plain too cold and having to wear a gloves and a hat for the first 20 miles, I just go downstairs, get in the car and go.

It helps the mpg too, but that's not where the real value is.
