You don't have car washes in your area?

My C7 and 911 sat on their tenders for 37 months while I was dealing with medical issues. Started right up (both) and have been fine now a year later. I had a C3 that went eight years without starting...no issue if put up properly....

It is not good for any vehicle to start it and just let it run without driving it enough to run thru the gears. I am on my third Corvette and due to the salt on the roads here in the winter, I keep them in the garage, hooked to a battery tender. I understand you are getting impatient, but as others have said, just wait until the salt is off the roads. Then it will be even more enjoyable. By the way, that was a good question.

Four Vettes in 12 years.
Each sat thru Minnesota winters.
Each one started up and ran for at least 1/2 hour in Dec, Jan, Feb. Out of hibernation in March.
Zero issues.
Is it good for the car or is it bad.
Who knows. Your car, Do what you think is best.

I run mine once a month for 30 min. on the driveway. getting temps up. Moving it around a bit in drive/ reverse turning wheels. Then back in the garage for another month. I've done this with all three of my Vettes. It's still a personal call.
