RE: Battery Questions
Thanks everyone for the responses. Gary, I am extremely interested in your idea of the slide-out battery tray. If you are able to get this done, I hope you post the process. Where located, cutting through the outside wall, etc. I want to get it done. Checking that battery in its current location is very difficult as everyone knows. Younger folks can handle it I'm sure but to some of us we just have to get someone to check the battery for us. Which is a hassle as no one really wants to do it. When we go in for service at the dealerships we request the aux battery be checked but I have a feeling they don't do it half the time. Even local service shops, gas stations etc. and on the road frown when you ask them, so I just say please do it and charge me. The result I just got a new battery installed at Camping World only after a year and a half which we should not have had to do. We are newbies to the RV World - so still learning also. I remember one of Daniel C's posts - he said he would just get a new one too much hassel. Oh well the price of getting older. Thanks again for the responses. J & W
