To stop the battery from going flat? We run every car in the yard every 2nd day to make sure we don't kill them.

They just dropped it back with a totally dead battery, and when I went to move it all the lights were pulsing :-( new battery and trip to Subaru to get the alarm sorted.

I would have thought it would be good customer service, to give the vehicle back to someone who's paying you $3000, in the same condition it was given to you..

Maybe my idea of customer service differs from yours and theirs

I have always used optima yellow tops have had 2 for over 7 years, keep them charged and they will sit for up to 12 months without losing charge. Yellow tops are a hybrid starting/cycling battery. Cannot recommend them enough!

I've used Odyssey's, Exide Orbitals and Optima Yellow tops. The Optima's have certainly been the best performing.
