So I am taking a couple days off starting Thursday and driving to my condo in Maryland. Ill be there till sunday.

I am making this post to actually see what people do with their cars before they go on a trip or vacation?

Me: I washed and cleaned my camaro on Sunday and leaving it in the garage till i take it down on Thursday.

Agreed. A good wash inside and out. Depending on the current mileage I would also change the oil. I also check all other fluids, tire pressure and lights.

Vacation? What is that?? Is that something that refers to not working and having time to do whatever with whomever you choose to do it with? Not real familiar with that. But if I were, I'd wash, wax and detail it if I was taking it with me.

Try, as hard as it can be, to stay productive at work. Oh, you meant car-wise? Just a quick check of the vitals and a good cleaning.

When we went on a two week vacation in June to Disney World, I washed the Camaro and parked it in the garage. Occasionally I'd check our security cameras, one is in the garage.

wash, detail, maybe a little extra wax on front to help clean bugs/grim off. Check fluids and I'm off for relaxation.
