1) If you use a trickle charger, be sure to use one compatible with AGM batteries.
2) Transport mode will not interfere with your wife driving the car in any way and she won't have to disable or re-enable the mode. The only thing she will notice is a message on the display notifying her it is turned on (try it yourself for a few days). I personally would use it as an extra margin of safety and a backup to the trickle charger in case it gets disconnected by accident, or your wife forgets to connect it or plug it in or connects it wrong.
3) There are a lot of people in South Florida that need seasonal storing of cars, and there are commercial services available to store and maintain your car for you. And some of them will even detail it and deliver it to you whenever you need it.
