LCD TV Removal for NY Winters

I am curious if people remove their LCD TVs when storing their campers in climates where we have prolonged below freezing temps. I live in upstate NY and store my covered 2015 DSRL outdoors. Can be months below freezing with many days each year below 0.
Thoughts?

Have all led now but for years had the older flat screen. No need to remove them they will be just fine and if they croak you will be able to replace with a similar of larger led for less than $200.

I suspect the RV dealers "Up Nawth" leave the televisions in all their units over the winter.

No. Also consider that trucks delivering these units brand new to the stores are not climate controlled nor are the containers they come in on. I take my phone skiing with me in 0 to minus degree temps without issue too.

I've never removed mine but I have also avoided turning them on when it is freezing. I let the RV and the TV warm up before I turn em on!

At our previous storage facility our camper was broken into over winter and all they stole was the TV. Our new facility seems more secure but I still remove it because I'm paranoid.

I do not remove mine. I live in Southern NY and have many days at or below freezing with no ill effects...

If I remember correctly, and at my age that is not always the case, I believe the extreme temperature concerns were more for plasma screen televisions.
