Default Traded in the Si for a G35xS!

Well for a week anyway. Helping my best friend who is blowing his lease mileage out the door.

So we swap last night and this morning he calls me and says car wont unlock with the fob and the engine wont fire...

I think he screwing with me... turns out he's not.

He moved it last night and didnt turn off the headlights cause he is used to AUTO headlights. geez

He didnt have cables, but I did in my trunk so he was able to jump it and get to work.

Any long term downside to the battery kill or will it just charge back up and be ok? I'd hate to have to replace the batt if I dont need too.

Default should be fine. as long as he ran/drove the car right after the jump.

it takes about 15-20 minutes of highway driving for the battery to load up after a draining.

Default I need to join ANOTHER forum now!

I tell you its nuts though.... The Si has zero creature comforts and this G is loaded to the *****.

My left foot fell asleep though.

I forgot how disconnected you can feel when driving an automatic.
