...I'm not sure you could leave your tow vehicle sitting for five weeks and still have a good battery, maybe.. maybe not...
True story: 1984 I was slated to go to Korea for a year in the Army. I left February 1984 and came home February 1985. My car sat in my mothers garage for the entire year and was never started. When I returned home, the first thing I did was try that car and see if it would start. Unbelievable, it still had enough juice in that battery to turn the engine over. Although my mother said no one ever started it (and she did not drive and would do it either), I can only assume, that maybe someone did start it. Still, I got the car running and drove it with the same battery for another year before I crashed it! (True story!... really!)
