problem:  my '06 'stang may sit 3-4 weeks between drives.  no problem if
I don't set the alarm.....but if I lock it, that sets the alarm
(including the optional Active system with motion sensors, etc) and the
battery completely discharges.

similar experiences?  how long can you leave it before it kills the
battery?  any way to lock it up without turning on the battery=draining
alarm.

and, gosh, this is my home garage.......what do people do in apartments
where they have to lock it?

thanks
JC
