I am leaving for a month or so to visit Pakistan:) but do I need to do anything to my cars while I am gone? Like unplug the battery? The Town Car and the Mark VIII will be in the garage but the continental will be in the back yard so nothing happens to it. oh yea Should I turn off the air suspension on all my cars too?

Can't steal it if there's no electricity.

The suspension computer will turn itself completely off after several hours. I can't remember its' strategy, but it wont run after you've removed the ingnition key after several hours, so you should be good to go there.

I know, that sentence made no sense.

yeah what I am scared of is that my Continental will be outside for a month without any body taking care of it. I have a car cover(so atleast it will be covered) and I will proble have to jump start the conti when I come back because the battery dosn't keep its charge( need to change the Battery). oh yeah an other thing, I just hope a hurricane doesn't come while I am gone too.
now for the tow truck thing, I think if you turn your front wheels all the way to the left or right, it can't tow. is that true?
