My F350 is used so little that the last time I changed it at 5000mi it had been over 2 years. Worries the dealer to death. It sits out there in the garage but I start it and let it run awhile every now and then.

I wouldn't crank the one in the garage unless I planned to get it well warmed up. You really want to cook out any condensation before putting it back in storage.
