Storing the G, fuel stabilizer ?

Hi there fellas, I am getting ready to put away my G for the winter. It'll be put outside with a cover on it in -30 C . I'd like to ask for some tips of what you guys do when you put your G away. And should I add fuel stabilizer ? Heard it's not recommended by Infiniti but I want to see what everyone do. Thank you.

Why would you not use your vehicle during the winter?

http://www.calgary.climatemps.com/

"temperatures by day reach -2.1°C (28.2°F) on average falling to -14.1°C (6.6°F) overnight.:"

I'm sure there are many clear not so cold days where you can use it

Years ago when i used to Ski in Vermont many vehicles had hanging AC line cords for block heaters to allow starting in very low temperatures..

I have no problem using mine in the winter here in NJ

I've used Stabil in my car 04 coupe every winter since 2005. No problems here. I just bring it with me to the gas station and put the instructed amount in right before I fill up the gas tank to full. Then I drive around a few miles to get it through the lines and park the car for the winter. Then fill up the tires (if i need to) and disconnect the battery. Easy as that and I haven't had a problem. Starts right up in the spring

It gets as low as -35 when winter hits in Calgary, and I can't get enough traction with rear wheel drive (tried 4 sand bags in the trunk, didn't help). Plus the city sprays a lot of salt on the road so it rusts out my undercarriage.

So put in some Fuel Stabilizer and fill up my tank then put it away ? What brand of stabilizer would you recommend ?
