I try to drive it weekly or at least bi weekly when the roads are good. :rockon:

Had her since 2016. No cover but its in my garage. I don't do any gas preservative or anything like that. I do have a a couple old fashion mouse traps with peanut butter on them and I have the poison stuff laying on the floor as well. Only caught one mouse in all those years.

I might get a battery tender this year for the super cold January - February days.

I put mine in covered storage, don't see it from 12/1 until 4/1 when I pull it out.
-Fill up, add some Stabil
-Moth balls still in the bag and on paper plates on top of each wheel (yeah, don't spread them out in the vehicle)
-Unhook battery
-Cover
-Say good bye

Moth balls are nasty. I passed on buying a GT500 because it was such an overwhelming stench. The po must've put 50 of them inside! 🤣
The dealer had a deionize machine in it for a week to try and reduce the smell.
Tried other methods as well. Nothing worked.
Well just imagine the poor moths flying around without them :)

I put my car on quik jacks, I remove tires and store them on a tire dolly and cover them, I keep a trickle/battery maintainer connected to my batterywhile stored. I start engine once every 4 weeks for 15 minutes. Keep car covered.
