battery issues

Near or close. The keys can indicate to the vehicle it's about to start. So it might charge the fuel rails, turn on the ecu. Short answer, yes it can kill the battery. This is for the smart keys of course.

My truck is a 2004 which I think is before the realm of the smart key.

Probably. But worth mentioning I suppose. Good luck. Check the grounds!

you might want to check the starter amperage draw, just a thought.

Finally got around to cleaning and inspecting the battery cables and batteries. After a good cleaning she fired up and quick. Looks like that was my whole issue. I guess 3 years without cleaning the terminals will do that... Thanks for the suggestions everyone.
