Since I will be winterizing and storing our motorhome for the next 120 days, I was contemplating disconnecting the coach batteries at the battery terminals. What will be the ramifications? Will all electronics have to be reset? Will I wreck anything? Opinion will be appreciated.

Larry - this one is easy. You can. Disconnecting the chassis (start) battery will stop the clock (sec, min, hr, day, month, yr)in the cummins ECM. I don't know what the Cat does - probably the same. A solar cell and controller or small charger is the better approach. By the way at this user group - history repeats itself about every 1000 messages - all subjects covered.
