I'm going back to college the 28th and I don't think my car will make it up there. Or the fact that I don't like driving my car in the snow, and I go to college in the mountains. So, hopefully I'll be able to leave my car at home. Now, should I let it sit or have it started every now and then and driven. If I let it sit, I should fill the tank up right? Should I disconnect the battery? Anything else? It will be sitting outside with no cover.

I know Ede or Vader will jump on this one soon too but i'll try and get as many points as i can.

Make sure the battery is charged, if it's going away for a relatively short period of time you can leave it connected as long as there are no parasitic devices running such as an alarm. Try and start it up once a month and let it run for 15 min.
Try and keep a full tank.
If you're putting it away for a while you can put it up on blocks to keep the suspension alive. Disconnect the battery.

If you're storing it without a cover put something in the windshield so your interior doesnt fade. Put mothballs in there aswell.

if it were my car i'd leave it as is and have someone start it and or drive it every week or so.

Thanks, I'll probably have my Mom drive it once a week.
