Question Battery tender

Just put my 07 gt into storage for the winter , last year when I took it out of storage the battery was completly dead, so this year I bought a battery tender,does anyone else use one of these , my question is do you plug the positive to the positve and the negative to the negative on the battery or do you plug the negative to the body

You can connect both leads directly to the battery. When you use jumper cables you should connect the negative to a chassis or engine ground.
