So i bought a battery tender. the battery tender is about $60-$70 dollars but is well worth it. The battery tender just plugs into the wall and is like jumper cables and hooks on to the battery only you leave it on all the time and when the battery gets lower then what it should be it will start charging it and when tis back up it will turn off. My battery hasnt gone dead in a year in a half to 2 years. They also said that it was from the alarm so i turned it off and it still went dead but now that i have the battery tender it hasnt gone dead ever since i got it.
+10 on the Battery Tender Plus. I have had mine for about 2 months now and plug it in to the cigarette lighter. FANTASTIC!

Before getting the Battery Tender I would pull fuse #16 from under the hood. That powers the Shaker 500 door amps. That helped a lot, but was a pain.
