I don't plan on letting the Prius (Silver Bullet) sit the whole winter. I will take it out twice a month and run for at least 30 minutes so the battery stays fit.
It's more to keep salt off of the Prius and I still like driving my VX. The VX has a bit of rust already, so it gets to be the "rust relief car." My grandson will inherit the VX in 4 more years when he's old enough to drive. Lucky kid isn't he! It's going to hurt letting the VX go as it's my favorite car ever out of about 20 cars in my lifetime, which has an assortment of vehicles with some being new. People who have owned one before know why it's such a great car.
