Moving out of the FS section to the. Garage section...

"...need someone up there to either set her up for long term storage or to get exercised every few weeks until you're back."


Here is an idea worth exploring:

Service members (or expat biz people) who are out of the country for extended times, could "rent" out their teeners to responsible parties for long term heated storage, regular exercise, etc. I would pay $50-$75/mo to care for a nice 914 driver to keep warm, dry and take for Sunday drives.

The owner could make $600-$900/yr, avoid the storage fees (another $900/year), and everybody would be happy. And how much appreciation would they get as prices keep rising?

If VRBO does it with million dollar houses, it could be done with $10k-$20k 914s.


I am all wet, or could this be done?

There are people out there that charge the owners of vehicles to drive them when they are away for extended periods. . If I remember correctly John Forbes wife used to do it years ago when he was in Florida. I am sure most of us make an effort to start and drive our vehicles regularly to exercise them. I drive a company vehicle all week long and make sure to start and drive my personal vehicles on a regular basis.
