I read that 21 days is the max you want to do this. I think after 21 days gravity starts to weight the car down and it'll indent and sag. It will cost a fortune to remove the indents.

You will be fine. The car doesn't know the difference between stands or the wheels. Just make sure it's level and you use good quality stands.

If I read the op I think only the front of the car is on stands?

getting ready to trade it in? I don't think the running it in reverse on stands will reduce miles any more.

Also know when you put the car down off jacks it will look like a 4x4. For the same amount of time it was on jacks...
