: Winter battery removal or not?

Opinions on whether or not to take the battery out of my C5 for the winter. I've been told to either disconnect the negative, put a battery tender on it, or to remove it completely. It's in a non heated garage for the next four months.
Thanks for all replys

The best way to keep the battery is with a battery tender on a trickle charge. You should at least start the car up every couple of weeks to let the engine stay lubricated and so the valve springs change position over the winter months.
