I think consensus is - if you can maintain battery, leave it in Pod. If not pull it and put it where you can maintain it.

Greetings:

I live in MN so I remove the battery and put it on a smart charger for the winter.  I park outside and have a poly cover which fits the pod.  I put blocks under the tires and the cover protects the outside and the decals.  Of course I winterize the plumbing.  It's worked out well for 2 pods and 9 years.

Well, here I am south of you marwayne and enjoying AUTUMM, before winter and what have we got?  Well about 6" of snow with a high today of -4 C and a low tomorrow of -15 C.  At least it isn't winter YET, when it gets really cold.  Did someone say 'global cooling?"

If you want something done right, do it yourself.

We get to enjoy 4 seasons on the Great Plains........some of us even enjoy Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.  (Those of you who are old enough see how I did that!)

Always Summer, right? You folks probably have no need to winterize ever, some of us are blessed with four seasons:)
