Re: storage

Parking on a big piece of plastic helps, especially if the ground has a bit of a slope to drain water. But you will still get lots of condensation if there is unpaved ground nearby.

A tent type garage will also help a lot. Make sure its got airflow amd is not sealed up.
Rustproofing, or at least covering any unpainted metal with a rust inhibitor (or even WD40) will help.
