Darwin and northern Queensland are not dry environments.
In the world of aviation, there is a stored-aircraft facility being built in Alice Springs, to provide an Australian facility to rival the USA ones. That would be a dry environment: but at what cost for a vehicle parked on the site?

Another good climate with safe storage would be Broken Hill, NSW.

rod that is exactly right everything gets wettish or maybe damp is the right way to describe it during the wet season weather inside or out its just a bloody mess I always describe it the wet season wrecks evreything or at least it dose on the farm nothing gets used for a few months I leave all the fuel tanks topped right up dosnt seem to make much difference still end up with water in them every thing seizes up and I live in the dry tropics must 10 times worse further north were they have a proper wet season
