If so sounds like toys power down issues and a controller. My old BMW (750iL) would run through batteries every 12-16 months by design, and they would just kill over night almost where they where at the limit of usage as there where so many toys in the car that would stay powered on 15 mins after you get out the car (by design).
I intend to put a second battery on just out of the fact you can, however i will be abit carful here to make sure the truck also has the correct working with regards programming making sure it works on 1 first.
Many Thanks | BMW's eat batteries more that any car I have ever owned, and they use good batteries from the start, and they are the most expensive to replace if you can even find them
