:shock:
I need to store my wonderful little car for 12 months in the garage. I live in NY, and the garage does get cold in the winter. Aside from a fresh oil change, and jacking the car off of its tires, what else should I do to prevent the car from acquiring problems? One of my concerns was leaving the battery unused for 12 mos....it can't be good for it. Should I leave it with a 100% charge, or should I discharge it completely?
I don't think anyone has brought this up.
Final note: The Insight is THE BEST CAR for me because:
1. seats are ultra sturdy and comfortable
2. fits tall people (me)
3. mileage is phenominal
4. Engine is built to higher precise standards than any other engine on the planet earth
5. the vehicle won't rust because of the aluminium&plastic construction
6. goes fast when it needs to
7. c'mon....73mpg!!!!
8. the increasing price of gasoline.
9. The necessary aerodynamic design will probably never be improved upon, because Honda went to the limit with the vehicle. The car will ALWAYS look cool!
I can add about 40 more points to that, but, its a start. I am always attracted to other cars, but none of them come CLOSE to the happiness my insight has given me.
Cheers,
Wyatt
PS: My parts want list:
1. Cruise Control setup that won't cause headaches in the future:
2. spare alloy wheels for summer tyres.
