OIC.I remember now. The newer models than mine ie the dualie models at 22.9 ft have the batteries where you mentioned. Sorry. First thing to go is memory next is--I really don't remember...
I have the big MB German battery for the engine, up front under the hood and it has been trucking along fine since new--ie since 2007!! I use a small solar battery plugged into my 12v and have it sitting on dash.Keeps battery happy.

Ah yes, the memory. Speaking of memory, I can't see how two batteries of any size can fit in the late models of the Mb chassis inthe eng.bay. iff you are moving often, the one battery is adequate. However,if you stay put in fall weather and run the furnace, one must use the generator. I've modified the Benny with resonator and suppertrapp which helps. I'm more concerned with effecting others camping experience. So, my only choice will be AGM batteries under the bed and adding solar panels which are not inexpensive or living with one battery. Really enjoy the Pleasureway and have found the factory support exceptional after my Airtstream experiences. By the way, how we're the steelhead runs this year?
