1. Inflate tires to a solid PSI (40?) and place on Flatstopper ramps. Is there another option? Read a few people say it's unnecessary, some use mats?
Not really necessary unless they are Vintage Bias-Ply Tires or you're storing it for years.
2. Battery maintainer -- Motomaster Eliminator Precision Series 1.5A -- hooked up directly to the battery in the garage, which can get a bit chilly on the coldest days but still way nicer than outside. But after reading, don't want to detach the battery from the car? Seems better to leave it?
I used a battery maintainer for the first year.
3. Car Cover
Yes! Covercraft or Coverking
4. Add Stabil to full tank, take for a quick drive to mix it in
Yep.
5. Thorough cleaning in and out
Always before you cover it.
6. Recently took it in for service in July, so assuming all liquids are fine until the Spring when I'll take it for service again
7. Cancel insurance for the winter months
I don't know how it is in Canada but here in the US they charge extra when putting back a car that was kept uninsured. I think you can suspend it?
