Everyone has their own preferred methods.
When I put mine away for the winter, I simply fill it up, park it and cover it. Nothing extra is done and every spring when I get in it it fires up right away, runs perfect and doesn't even lose any tire pressure.
Now if the car were a few years older that might not work as well but in the cars first few years of life, it has been perfectly fine for me.

Don`t disagree, although, the last few times I`ve tried it, seems to be improved. Most times it seems to have PMS

I'll be honest... I think the search function is garbage.

RE: Storing the pony.
Old oil is caustic and rancid with acids.
Change it for new along with the filter
before storing for that long or your bearings
may get etched.
Full gas tank with Stabil added.
Partially filled gas tanks promotes condensation.
Battery tender is also a must or disconnect the
negative cable. Also some desicant drier for the
inside to absorb any moisture.
