Tarp under the car helps a lot.

If you have a place to store it locally where you live, why not have a transport company pick it up and deliver it to you?

Car is a trooper. Never stranded me in 20 years... And I have had it all over the place!

I will put a tarp under it and ditch the rat bait this fall when I fly out.

OK I am flying out next week to put a tarp under it, add more coolant, and ditch the rat bait.
