Default Re: battery going dead and wont start after a few days

So your new battery was ran down to dead after the truck sat for a few weeks? These trucks will kill the battery if left to sit for a few weeks without being started, I have the same issue with my corvette (I have had 4 of them and all did it). Unfortunately many batteries once they go completely dead and sit that way for an extended period of time will never hold a charge well again. This may be your issue, if your going to park your truck for more than a few weeks I would recommend a battery tender or disconnecting the battery while it sits (tender is much more convenient). If the battery is fairly new Im sure its still under warranty, bring it back.
