I used to be concerned about winter but with 40 or so cars now I just park them when I need to. My best 16 are in a great building which is dry and reasonably air tight even.
I do not start cars unless I need them running as a rule. Worst wear on an engine is at start up. Oil is gone in a day or so anyway. Flooding with Marvel Mystery oil or the like is a good idea though as I understand.
Never taken wheels off vehicles. They round up soon. Not unusual to start a car up after 2-5 year sleep and put 100 miles on it within days without much work on it at all. And the work will most likely be brakes it seems.

Subject: Re: [FWDLK] Winter Storage
Dont all get mad at me, but I haven't gone through any winter storage
techniques. and I live in New York. As long as there's no snow, i'll drive my
Dodge. The heater works and i get double thumbs up cause people think i'm
crazy for driving in the cold.
