Ya, but, Theses cars have so much going on "live" when the car its shut off its still drawing power. Just like all the electronics in your house. Its shut off but is still drawing power.
They should have a button that you can hit to turn off all but essential power if for a couple weeks or what ever if it not being used.
No, I don't understand about changing a battery & having to dick around with all this shit.
But ? Fuck um.
I what crank & vent windows.
