Dave,
If you're going to place the truck on stands or blocks that are high enough
to get the tires off the ground, (to keep them from flatspotting) why remove
and stack them? If the tires will be exposed to sunlight, putting covers on
them will help. The best solution for a six month period is find someone you
trust and have them drive 25 miles each week, which should be enough to
charge the battery by the amount needed to start up and will warm the engine
enough to evaporate any moisture in the oil.
