Ram is Stored (sort of)
Ram is Stored (sort of)
I'm in Chicago now so my Ram is in a heated garage and it is on storage insurance because I don't need it. I have been insuring it every few weeks and driving it for an hour but now the roads are covered in salt. Question: It has been sitting for 5 weeks. Best to run it for 20 minutes and maybe change where the tires sitting or just leave it alone until I can really drive it? It certainly will not warm up under those conditions.
I stored mine for 4 years while I was stationed in Italy. I put it up on jackstands which worked really well. If I had to store it again, I'd definitely disconnect the batteries and not install a battery tender. Had bad problems with the batteries just sitting with the tender on it.
I also second filling up the tank. Make sure you put some biokleen in there which will keep the algae out of the fuel.

Where were you at?
I stored a '69 Mustang for a couple of years while I was stationed in Sicily. Put it up on blocks, full tank with fuel stabilizer, etc. When I got back I put it back on teh ground, charged the battery, changed the oil, and drove it to my next duty station. No problems.
