    Heat/dust isn’t an issue (minus maybe cracking the dash of there isn’t a sun shield), it’s why all the plane and car grave yards are in the desert. Cold/moisture will kill anything quickly.

      Heat is a huge issue for things like rubbers and tyres. In the grave yard they don’t care about the things going to waste.

        About 1/2 as bad for it sitting. Rubber will rot a lot quicker with weather than just dry heat. You’re talking about a constant heat with no moisture vs an humid heat + water + cold cycles. It’s a lot worse on rubber than dry desert heat is.
