1. Will be leaving vehicle for 6 months each yr. What will I need to do to take good care of my car? 2. I bought a very good cover to put on it to protect it, is this a good idea? I want to thank you for any answer.

Disconnect battery so it won't drain then when you go to start up charge battery and change oil and filter.

I imagine so, you won't be able to to control temp inside car as you don't want to leave windows down. If in a carport it should be ok instead of in the sun.
