If you are not into a dehumidifier, my experience is that Calcium Chloride is the most efficient of the crystal type ones.  They do make dehumidifiers that use a desiccant but I have never tried them.

I don't always downshift, but when I do it is near a Prius so they can hear me hurting the environment.

I have used the zippered up bag "Car Jacket" and a special designed metal cylinder that contained dissident that the company makes to use to control humidity in the bag once it was sealed up. I have used them with good success for a number of years when storing cars in a unheated storage facility . I have since moved to a larger building and have not had to use it but would not hesitate to use it again if I had to. Also good to keep out mice or prying eyes too.
