I'm moving to Florida for a year and I wanted to know what I should do as far as leaving the taco sitting around this whole time...I'm leaving it in a self-storage garage covered..any advice?

Fuel stabilizer is a must, and put non-ethanol in the tank if you can find it. The new ethanol gas undergoes what they call "phase separation" after about 3 months. I don't know enough about it to explain it, but I know that it will wreak havoc on your engine. Other than than, wash and wax before you go, and make sure the truck is dry so you don't have to worry about rust. Change your oil, and consider leaving the truck on jack stands to avoid flat spots on the tires.
I remember a thread a while back where someone asked a similar question, so a search may turn up some more tips for you, too.

a battery tender....stabil. Make sure to don't park it in a barn with a dirt floor. That will rust out your floors fairly quickly. :thumbsup:
Looks like the guys found you some good info, but can I ask why your not takin' the taco? I'd miss my truck to much to leave it.
