I just put my baby to rest last week, before the first snow storm and follow the same recipe of last year: Put stabilizer on the gas, wax & cleaned inside/outside, put extra air on my wheels and one (I think) key thing: Since I store the car on my own garage, I try at least ONCE per week(of course if is not snowing) turn on the car outside my driveway for at least 10 mins. and whenever weather permits (no snow, dry roads) drive it for a couple of blocks. In this way I kept the battery "alive" and avoid any mark on the tires. No emergency brake (to avoid marks on the disk)and last, when car will back on the road, immediately change the oil. This "recipe" is very similar to the ones was wrote on this thread, but was given for a guy that collect classic cars and is the way he keep his cars on our Canadian Winters.
The bright side to store your car? you feel every spring like you have a brand new car! and after drive for few months a winter beater, appreciate even more your Hachi-Roku....
