first start up after winter hibernation
#11
I will start the snake once a week just for the battery to charge but I usually get to take it out about every 2 weeks. Otherwise the head unit and radar drain it and I usually forget to unplug those. Never had any problems with that. The 'vert gets driven about the same but doesnt need the periodic battery charging. Yeah, I know I should put a trickle on the snake, but Im fuggin lazy.

I neglected to put my front end up on jackstands (rear has been for awhile) and now kicking myself for it since it's been so cold...maybe I can get a chance to do that this weekend, supposed to snow (again) and we're not doing anything, and it's actually supposed to get above freezing for the first time in awhile! So I want to try to find some garage time.
FWIW since 2004 been changing oil, park car in garage, fuel stabilizer, and then just let it sit untouched for 5 months for the 'summer cars'. Never an issue, minimal effort.

I drive my car minimally during the winter, but I try not to let it sit for more than two weeks or so w/o driving it. If the roads are dry and clear (e.g. no snow or wet salt) then I fire her up and go for a long cruise on the freeway.
