Hi Scotty,  I need some advice.  I live in Rhode Island.  I am retiring this year and have purchased a home in Florida where I will be spending 6 months out of the year in the winter.  I don't want to transport my vehicles back and forth between the houses and plan to have one vehicle in Rhode Island and one in Florida.  Would you recommend a car cover for the Miata?  What would be the best way to maintain the battery, leave it in, trickle charge, take it out? Will the tires develop a flat spot?  Ask a neighbor to run them once in a while?  I don't have a garage at either location.  Basically looking for any advice you could give me on the best way to store a vehicle for 6 months.  Thanks.  Love your video's, I have learned a lot.

Cover the Mazda, take battery out and put it on the trickle charger. I’d also find somewhere you can store it safely since you said you don’t have a garage. Tires may develop a flat spot but when I’ve been oversees for months at a time I get back and the tires are still good.

If you don’t have a garage, the best way is to have someone drive it once a week.
