Oil change?

[Natishin]

Question for you all, I'm in Canada and we're about to put our 'toys' into storage for the winter. My question is...is there a preferred time to do a oil change? Before storage or after a 5 month storage period?

Thanks.

You'll get differences of opinions...but main thing is how many miles going into storage on the oil? Normally after a regular driving season, it gets changed. This year, it was not driven to events etc. Am putting mine away in a week or so, but only have 3000 plus on it right now, out of a normal 5-5.5 thou for changing. So, in it goes. And out once a month for 30-35 miles drive...not just around block which is hard on all systems. Hope that helps...
