Battery Location on Highlander HF350H Toy Hauler

First year winterizing. Folks tell me I should pull the batteries out the 5th wheel and store them indoors away from freezing temps on trickle charger. First step is finding them. Anyone know where...

Batteries are like bears in cold winter. Their metabolism slows and the process really helps a lead acid battery life longer. Simply disconnect the ground cable after charging. Many self discharge charts use 20c as a guide. 10°F is a fifth of that. Battery heaven. Batteries are not cute wiggly puppies. Of course if you have -75F winters then that's different. Any type of charging is uneeded if the ground cable has been removed. But make certain the battery has been fully charged.
