we had a 10 and only battery discharge problem we had was leaving the key in accessory position by accident.
We haven't towed the 13 yet and it is all wheel drive.
Previously we had heard from some, in campgrounds about towing thee 11 with push button start.
What you do is put the ac in recirculating mode before turning off, to keep dirt from coming in. Turn lights and radio off. May not be a problem with it but I will do it anyway. Start car and run through gears ending in neutral. Cut car off and press start button once with foot off brake. We are supposedly ready to be towed.
I just got me a ford edge sport 2013 and am curious about battery drain as well. With the accessory switch on, I wonder what the power consumption will be even with the AC and Radio off. Anyone out there pulling fuses on the 2013? If not, is anyone having battery issues at the end of a day's tow?
