We let the cart on tires for six months a number of times.
We still have the same set of tires, six years later.

You’re exactly right & when the water evaporates it’ll over heat & then could overheat & cause a fire!

Thanks

I disconnect the negative wire from post on battery. I was told to do this by a mechanic. Before doing this I would come back to Illinois and have to replace the battery.

I need a recommendation for a good trickle charger.
My trickle definitely could use a good charging.

Disconnect your battery before you leave
