Hope you didn't park it under a drip spot...I have seen cars have major paint damage from calcium seepage from water and other chemicals leaking from above concrete...

It's BWI, they are too cheap to have plumbing

No, I checked, not under any drainage or fire suppression pipes.

I'm more worried about battery drain than anything else, while technically I should only be gone 1 work week at a time, there may be times during high work load where I may be out of town for 3 to 4 weeks.. not like I can hookup a battery tender in airport.

airport shuttle may be the way to go for longer trips.

Why don't you just take a cab and leave your car home? Or maybe ask your wife to drop you off?

Since I leave around 430/5am to make an early flight, taxi and super shuttle are too unreliable. Maybe for coming home, but not being picked up.

Not fair to my wife either, or our 14 month old child who would have to be dragged with.

Only option is driving myself.

At least she cannot beat me in Indianapolis
