If I am not using the 5er for a month or more. I keep mine on the front landing gear and the wheels. I also keep the front of the 5er high to avoid any pooling of water on the roof.
I walk past mine every day when I walk the dog so I keep an eye on the tires (shaded)to make sure they are not going flat, keep bird nests cleaned off of the hitch/bumper/steps/etc, and generally watch for any change in status.
I keep mine plugged in but I take my good batteries out and put them in the warmed garage on a maintainer, summer and winter. I put an old boat battery in the RV to maintain power for the slide or whatever if I do decide to use it. I have all the water out of the lines, even in summer. I do an anti critter check on the inside every couple of weeks and watch for signs of intrusion.
Almost forgot, I put a gun cleaning brush in the fresh water tank breather hole. Around here there is a wasp that likes to use small bore holes for a nest. The first year I parked at my house I found almost 6 inches of wasp nest in my breather tube.
