Storage area has a steel roof and retractable sides. So, we can camp during the winter, while it's in the RV carport. Again, the basis of the question was leaving the slides open to save wear and tear on the sliders vs excess strain in the slide's supports if left open too long. Sounds like people think the slides could be left open if no concern of snow weight, but the slide gear/motor system is nearly indestructible.
While I said no issue if no snow load I do want to add some mfg recommend storing with slides in so the hydraulic rods do not rust.
