you southern guys got it easy.Up here in the winter mine sits in a storage facility next to other sick cars for 6 months without starting.I dont even get to see my car.3 weeks is nothing.you do have to prep the car for anything over 2 months though.

mine sat for a couple months after my hydroplanning accident without starting, hole in the oil pan, in this case it was better to let it sit, had to be sitting for at least 3 months without starting
got it back from the shop, had no problems

8 Months here only to find a dead battery. If you are going to leave the car for more than one month, unhook the negative side of the battery to help keep it from going dea

Mine sat for 2 1/2 months in about 4" of water. I couldn't even get to it. All this happened during that damn hurricane. I thought it was totally flooded out but the big man up stairs said she will run another day. 3 weeks no problem at all.
