Going on vacation for 3 weeks!

So that means no driving the Evo for three weeks? Anything I should worry about while its just sitting there not being driven(well except for theft and vandalism)?

Not going to be a problem. I left my evo out in the middle of a NY winter, outdoors in the snow, for a month, with noone warming it up or anything. Got back and it start it up fine with everything working like it should . Now, I'm preparing to store it for 6 months, that might be a different story....

sounds like a great deal to me, thats what i would do, but if you cant/dont want to then you could try to get it into the backyard somehow under a car cover out of site. Vandalism is my biggest fear with this car.

i can't believe you just posted on the internet that your evo will be parked in your driveway while you are on vacation for 3 weeks.

it is hard to trust people but i know what it is like. i got a boost baby to. i dont know how my life would be without it. i love that yellow evo. i would think most of us here are the same way so i would have no problem for anyone to leave it here at no charge to know it is safe. id treat it as if it was the last one on earth. plus you can have the relaxed feeling of when you come home your car is as you left it. maby cleaner tho. lol
