RE: [DML] Battery questions

["robert parker" <roberthparker@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

How about:  take the battery home & trickle-charge it all winter. Put car on 
jack-stands, inflate tires to >40 PSI (or take them home, too).  Cover it 
with a "Ford" labled car cover. ;-)      Drive Stainless  Robert  VIN 6924

Stored my D for the winter and have been starting it every week or
so
but the battery seems to have died today, which is bad news for a
few
reasons - most notably that my Lojack is now dead.  When it first
failed to start a few days ago, I charged it up with a portable
charger and it started up. I ran it for a while but when I went back
to start it a
day or two later, the battery seems completely dead - just the
solenoid click and a flickering of the dome light.  This time I
couldn't even jump start it.
