Not driving your car

Hold it…what does the owners manual say to do?

I wouldn’t do anything like put dessicant packs in the tailpipe (it gets wet everytime you drive due to condensation), spray silicone over the rubber (it doesn’t get lubricated when you drive, so why would you need to lubricate it when not driving), or jack up the car (not sure what that is supposed to do). Many of these things are old traditions that people have developed but none are methods recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.

I probably wouldn’t add fuel stabilizer or fill the gas tank, either, unless recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
