After our 81 degree day a week ago, last night we hit 0 with wind chill and a few miles north got near a foot of snow. miker |

I have run down my battery twice when I was at home and didn't quite close the trunk - go out in the morning and think DAMNED. I didn't even figure it out. My husband came home late one night and when he opened the garage he saw the light in my trunk on. I felt like an idiot. I'm also worried about the auto locks triggering because when I park the car in the garage at home I leave the keys on the dashboard. (If I bring them in the house I'll spend 30 minutes looking for them the next day). My solution is to always leave the lid down or, if it came home wet, to leave the windows down. My dog probably COULD open a window but he wouldn't - just out of spite. |

Heh, another good reason to hold onto my 1990 - no trunk light. <g> Actually I put one of those "stick-on" lights in the trunk. If I leave it turned on, the only battery that goes dead is the one in the light, *not* the one in the car. Iva & Belle.) '90B Classic Red.) #3 winkin' Miata |
