I'm beginning to wonder if the battery tenders are doing in the batteries. I parked my car outside all winter in the carport in early October. Granted Texas, not Wisconsin. Did not even start it for almost five months. No battery tender, nothing. I just ignored it for five months. This past Friday it started first try. Took it to wash it and put air in the tires. ( down to 26 psi). Took it home. Maybe a mile total driving after five months. Drove it to work the past four days with never an issue. Oil life was 87% when I parked it. 13% when I first started Friday and Zero when I went to work Saturday night. Just got home from the dealer from my 2nd free oil change ( that would have expired in 8 days) I think people are inducing problems by OVER maintaining the vehicle.

Yes it is a nice car. The nicest I've ever owned! But it is still just a car, not the space shuttle.
