    Haven't driven the 355 in 3 weeks woke up this morning to bright sunshine and 60 degrees was so looking forward to a drive and behold a dead battery! Bummer! Put the battery tender on it and took her for a drive this afternoon - Glorious! South Florida doesn't get any better!

    very common problem...but as I learned here on Fchat, never, ever try to start a 355 with a dead battery. Yes you don't know until you try...BUT apparently it's common to fry an airbag ECU when doing this. I tried starting on an apparently low battery 3-4 times before learning this and never had a problem luckily. Now I always charge the day before I'll be driving if it sat more than a week or so...

    Anyway happy driving, we've got nearly 60F up here in CT, looking forward to a solid gathering tomorrow for cars and coffee :D
