Another Buckeye!! Plenty of other threads here covering this topic but the short version for how I winterized......Fill gas tank, dump in a bottle of Sea Foam (StaBil would also work), Change the oil and filter, wash and wax car, treat leather seats, fill tires to ~ 53 psi, plug in Battery Tender Jr. and put the cover on.

It looks like your up on some kind of jack stand type something. What is that?

Buckeye and a Rocket!
Some people don't really winterize... they do long term parking.
We own ice scrapers and snow blowers... they mow all year.

Thanks

Those are wheel dollies. They enable me to push the car over in the garage to allow more room for the wife's rather large Honda van (got a few kids). When not put away for winter, the Porsche is parked where the red car is, I park that one outside then. I'm 45 and this will be the first time I've been able to park my daily driver in a garage during the winter, halleluiah. Wheel Dollies....a small price to pay for marital harmony, and no door dings.

So such luck for me. The "daily" gets parked on the driveway now (thank god for heated seats). Thanks
