Don't over thinking this. Oh and yes, you NEED to keep it insured.

We store our Travel trailer outdoors for seven to nine months out of the year...as do many motor home RV users.
We have let the battery go dead before (happens pretty fast actually less than two months) and do not use anything for the tires...never any issues.
We now store with it plugged in, which is only nice if you visit it after dark and need light.
Aside from inapplicable winterization that is also required for RVs, the motor home users will do a few additional motor oriented steps, but not much.
When you come back, check the oil and just be prepared to jump it and to possibly see some smoke from any oil that slowly seeped into the cylinders over the months.

true
but because i got lots of points on my driving record. a full coverage cost me monthly 205$ :anger:

Talk to them (your insurance company) and let them know you won't be driving it. I think there is a policy or something for people with summer cars that allows insurance against loss from fire, vandalism, and so on (but not driving).

My boss used to have a Porsche he only drove during summer, he would have a different kind of insurance on it during off season that was dirt cheap (I believe other than home insurance). Might ask.

Edit: would add if you have a lien (financed) be sure you check the above with lien holder first to make sure all is ok. You don't want forced place insurance while you are gone $$$$

yeah im on a finance.. should I talk to the dealer and let him know? :???:

I would leave your insurance alone then (keep as is). Forced Place is a term for insurance a finance company takes out on your car / asset for you and is extremely expensive. Sometimes mistakes happen when changing insurance companies and a lien holder may mistaking force place insurance, it is then hard to be refunded (you will pay dearly) because they will say you didn't let them know.

I would leave everything as is for insurance (full coverage or whatever you already have that they are happy with), if you think 205 is bad you don't want to know what forced place would be.

What's wrong with storage insurance????

Nothing if a) you hold title or b) your lien holder is 100% ok with it.

What you don't want is to be gone when the lien holder believes the vehicle is no longer insured.

It very well could be that the lien holder here is ok with this, but I would want it in writing.

I never had an issue placing storage insurance on a vehicle. Hopefully is the case here. Much, much cheaper.

OK, so perhaps it is wise for the OP to look into this. Your existing insurance company likely knows any lien holder pitfalls too, and would be a good resource to start with.

Yes, it would be much more economical.
