Alright! StormShield, YC S20, is officially launched! First round starts at $20m!

OK, maybe it does almost sound feasible, but I wonder what someone with outdoor car dealership experience would say? Is this a practical idea? How often do you need to unroll those mats?

Where are you storing the mats also? I can't imagine that they'd be small, even rolled up.

Right, those mats wouldn't be small. They would need lots of storage area.

Maybe a few be stored, rolled up, under vehicles at the back of the lot that are less likely to be moved?

And the rest could be stored indoors. They shouldn't be heavy, so maybe they can be stashed in the ceiling, or somewhere high up out of sight?

-Wouldn't making them inflatable solve much of that problem?

You could even offer a deluxe version with a CO2 cartridge.
