Default dirt or concrete

My wife has had it walking around atv in garage and said move it NOW! I thought I would build a little shelter on end of deck and was wondering which was better for tires, being parked on dirt or should I pour concrete? Cause like everyone knows " if momma ain't happy no one's happy"

i really dont think it matters as both maaterials can hold moisture. but i like concrete for being solid.

My .02 worth. Put concrete down with plastic underneath as a vapor barrier and put at least a roof over it. The moisture coming up through dirt will kill the metal eventually due to rust.

Build a cheap wooden shed. Lowe's has them cheap or maybe a "store and lock" type storage facility. Or bring it to my house and I'll store it for free. Don't forget to leave me the key.

Thanks Scrammersam, Just for the heck of it I said honey one of the guys on the forum said build a shop and she says ' good idea now you can get all that reloading crap out of my way too..... I don't know why but I'm not arguing looks like a 30x40 shop is on the way before she snaps back to reality.......
