Planning on living abroad for 3 months without my car. I plan on keeping my car and will need it when I’m back to continue my travels in North America. I plan on pausing my insurance and doing a “storage plan” so I can start it back up when I’m back. I can’t leave it with family because they are thousands of miles away.

Looking for advice on where to store my car for a relatively inexpensive price in the western U.S. Will probably decide which city to fly out of based off of where my car is. This would be in a couple of months, so will probably be through most of winter by then.

Also would greatly appreciate any advice on things to do to keep my car in good condition while I’m gone, like preventive measures.

    Do you have any trusted friends/colleagues where you are? Maybe I’m just thinking of this from the small-town perspective where I live, but if someone I knew needed a place to keep their car and have someone at least occasionally crank it and drive it a little for them, I’d for sure offer to do that. The absolute worst thing for a car is to just let it sit.
