I, too, lost my 1st battery early (though not within a day). I now make it a habit to turn everything off (radio, heater/ac, lights) before turning off the ignition. Now I've only changed the battery at my normal 4-5 yr interval. It does draw a lot of juice as the computer is always on and even the cigarette lighters are with power when the ignition is off (which means you can charge your phone over night or at the movies)
