Probably a silly concern...

A friend of mine owns a ES350 and is going on a three week vacation. He’s worried that three weeks without starting up the car might cause some problems… I told him that this would be very unlikely but I thought I’d ask you folks first.

I have left my ES's('91,'94,'03,'07) for well over a month at a time, and when I returned they all started up and ran without any problems. They didn't feel the worse in any respect.

When my Solara sat for like 6 months or so the Antitheft killed the battery so i charged it up and it was fine. I make it a point to take it out once a week or so to get the fluids hot and what not. Shes only got 3000 miles on her but I know if I dont drive it everything will dry rot. But three months is nothing.

Three weeks? No maintenance required. Would be a good idea to put it on jackstands to keep the tires fresh.
Three months... Take the battery off & put it on a cycling charger, car on jacks, Dry-gas installed.
Check tire pressures & when the car is re-started, think about changing the oil in the near future so you don't worry about having to boil the accumulated moisture out of the oil.
