I have a 2004 F350 Diesle...I do not drive it much other than to tow the RV...it sits for weeks at a time...I have a resident mouse that lives in the fender well...I have had numerous problems with minor issues... I have been criticized by the dealer for not driving it enough....I was told....drive it at least 20 miles once a week.. let it get good and hot, do not be afraid to kick it down into paqssing gear a couple of times and when I park it, let it idle for about 5 minutes before shut down..add a little cetane to the fuel to keep it fresh.....dern mouse does get a little upset though..

FWIW, I'd get that mouse out of there. I had an 05 Silverado that used to sit for a week or so at a time. Once, I got in, it started, but would just barely move when put in D or R. Long story short, had it towed to the dealer (it was under warranty)...seems a squirrel had made a nest under the hood and the nest consisted of some of my wiring and insulation.
