How often should a car be driven at bare miniumum. I know its not good to let a car sit. I went on vacation and it's been sitting for a little over two weeks I was just wondering what the bare minumum that a car should be driven so it doesn't harm anything. Example: x times month or year or week?

Started and fully warmed up driven 30 minutes once a month will keep the car. Any less storage options get limited. Fuel stabilizer and battery tender and other things like lifting the tires off of the ground to keep them round. Clean lubricants full gas tank with stabilizer additive all help keep corrosion down. Motors do not like to sit there are valves open and cylinder walls rusting. Inside in a climate controled place out of sunlight is best.

two weeks sitting isnt a bad thing but if you are going to do it on a regular basis invest in a battery tender but a start up and run to operating temp is a good idea every few months
