My old truck that I traded in had a small coolant leak (divulged) so it was not driven for a few months and had to charge it once. We are talking a day (hours) on the MME. Not apples to apples. Can still get in so (and could use front wires) if we had two posts coming out a hole in the cover where those +/- are written it is a simple task of charging the 12V.Something to think about - we've discussed how the 12V frunk release only functions with a dead 12V battery - it is locked out by a relay when the 12V battery is healthy. This means that the lockout relay is constantly energized by the 12V battery. We don't know the specs on this relay, but the coil has to use some amount of power. If the car sits long enough without something charging the 12V battery, it's going to die. Not if, but when. Will it take a week to die? a month? two months?
