THis may just be my car...but I never let my old C900t sit and idle. I have this old anxiety that it just gets too hot under the hood for it. This all stems from going through normal overheating of a bad radiator, t-stat and problems with a leaking H2O hose... but ever since then I don't like to let a car sit an idle unless its really cold out. It helps the car to have air flowing under the hood to circulate everything. If I start my cars I will usually end up driving them just so they fully warm up...which the manual says can be up to 10 miles if its really cold out.

But this is very subjective. Honestly though ...I either let them sit for awhile and I drive them one or two days in a row and let them sit again....or I let them sit. If your don't want to drive it at all then the charge might be a good idea for the battery.
