[s-cars] Back in 6 months..

[Serge Filanovsky]

Good thoughts Emre, agree with all except the part about doors/trunk ajar.
If I were to leave my car in a hot Florida garage, I would not want to leave
it open to any bugs/rodents that may be looking for a new home. A bag of
charcoal (the regular Kingsford, not the Matchlight) does a good job of
keeping moisture under control as well.
