I was kind of wondering what everyone does that garages their mustangs half of the year.
You know, you people that live in the northern half of the country like me (Nebraska).

I usually change the oil, but this year I figure I should probably flush the radiator too.

What else should I change/check/do?
Any other suggestions? Its been sitting for about 6 months.

Thanks a bunch-

You might want to check the tranny fluid and tire pressure.

change the fuel filter, fill up with fresh gas, and drive it to burn off the carbon and gum that built up while she was sitting idle.

This is what I do:
1)Oil change before storage
2)Disconnect the battery
3)Add fuel stabilizer to the tank
4)Put the tires at the recommended pressure(some people actually take them off and store them, but I don't-this is just a preference for me)
5)Car cover
6)I usually either start the car and let it run for about 10-15 min. once a week, or on nice dry days, take it out to "stretch its legs" around the block a few times.
7)If you prefer not to run it, change the fuel filter prior to starting after sitting.
