But what's the point? What's the advantage to doing it vs not doing it? I've never done it as I never could get a real explanation or definitive proof as to benefit of storing this way? Not trying to be difficult, I just don't get it.

What everybody else has said...it takes half the weight off the coach/tires.

Certainly not half, maybe 25%. There really is nothing to understand, I see no real benefit and no tangible information has come out. If you all are so inclined than do it. Comparing using your jacks in sunny Florida versus leaving them exposed in a northern tier state is pretty ludicrous. I would say covering the tires will get you further than lifting a little weight off the suspension. JMO, if every single coach owner went out tomorrow and put their jacks down I would still leave mine up. In fact, if you were to leave them down for an extended period, I would think it wise to run them up once a month when you do your genny check. Still, I don't see what lifting 25% of the weight is doing to help.
