Odds are the battery will be dead when you get back. You should also park it in a garage to protect it from sun damage.

Disconnect the negative battery cable when you park it and buy a car cover to protect the vehicle from UV rays. Make sure the cover is secure so it won't blow off in a windy day or storm. Hope that helps! Jim
