Battery tender question

I might put my 23 F350 6.7 on battery tender periodically . Can I just attach the leads to the driver battery ? Or passenger? From what I’ve read you can do either cause they are connected ? Thanks !

Either one, they’re in parallel.

That is correct. No disassembly required.

I was referring to the fact there are several threads on this forum of brand new 2023 trucks with failed batteries already with about 1 month service on them .
