Freshwater tank during long storage
Will be storing our Winnebago Vista for 6 months, so is it better to leave water in the freshwater tank, or drain completely?

If I cannot or choose not to make regular checks on the rig during the storage period, I would cover it regardless of whether it's stored inside or out.
There have been multiple posts where folks put their rig in storage for winter and when they went to use it in spring, it was totally ruined from water damage (both with indoor storage and outdoor).
The storage place isn't going to check your space for leaks, etc., so you need to take precautions.
For me, my rig is in my driveway. After the first rain of the season, I check for leaks. After every big rainstorm, I check for leaks. I've caught a leak early this way and prevented major damage.
