My S has been parked since October here in PA. I haven't used a tender and typically I start the car once a month and allow it to run for 30 minutes to get the oil hot.

I've never had any issue with a flat battery even when we've had minus zero temps for weeks at a time.

On another note, Keysguy---I have a house in K.W, but haven't been able to get there this winter. How long have you been in the Keys?
