So, what do we do? We don't have a garage, unfortunately, either. Should I have my critter sitter start the car and let it run for a little bit every few days?

Thanks!

Barb, don't worry for just 10 days, make sure the indicator shows near full on the traction battery. I travel a lot and have let mine sit for 5 weeks and everything was fine. I saw somewhere Toyota says 2 months. SK
