Generally true, but not for a car in the Snow Belt! Some people have no option but to store it or watch the road salt eat it away bit-by-bit.

Storing a car isn't difficult or bad for it if stored properly. These are procedures many quality Museums use to keep a car healthy through years of non-use.

I've yet to hear of anyone having issues if the car was properly stored, but this forum is pelted annually by those who discount the value or are unwilling to take the proper steps.

Cheers!
