Yep, I would say battery too. Also, if you're leaving anything plugged in like a cell phone charger, radar detector, etc that would run the battery down too if it was good.

battery. with as long as you leave it sitting, i'd suggest disconnecting the ground cable to it to ensure there are no ghost drains. you could also leave the battery hooked up to a trickle charger as well.

really? reputable shops mess people's cars up and overcharge you? It must not be very reputable if they don't stand behind their work. if you're just gonna let it sit there, and stuff is already messed up on it, which will not get any better JUST SITTING THERE, just sell it to someone who will appreciate it, take care of it, and enjoy it....
