Yes. And I've heard stories of people getting a tractor or backhoe to clear a neighbor buried by debris in a traditional outdoor shelter.

My wife has resisted me having a shelter installed in our garage for several years. After seeing the devastation from these tornados, she has agreed. I will be looking into having one installed soon. I'm sure they will be backed up months due to the recent events. I want one that will last for more than a few years before rusting out.
My son has a Flatsafe shelter and likes his.
Our house got hit by the small tornado in Mustang last April that popped up out of nowhere. After that we got a Smart Safe in garage floor shelter and decided to spend the extra $800 to get the 14 person size. We decided that the extra money would be well worth the extra family and friends that we could cram in there if we ever need to.
How could you ever complain about a storm shelter? Even in the off season they are very useful for oil changes
It is small and cramped, hot and humid but it kept us alive.my wife always called it the metal coffin.but it did it's job

...which raises an excellent point: make sure that, in your hour of need (with ten minutes' warning), your car won't be sitting on top of it. If you normally park two cars in your garage, you'll have to open the door, move the car, then get to shelter, potentially leaving you outside until the last possible moment.
Wife has always hinted at wanting one, but now I am seriously considering getting one in the next year or so. Just can't do it financially right now, but I think it would give me peace of mind. Especially if I am gone at the behest of my bosses, and she's home alone with the dogs and the weather goes south.
I can get in mine with the truck inside
