First I have to ask, how long was it setting between uses??? And how short are those drives?
Unless you REALLY don't use the truck much (sits for months at a time) and you only drive it on 1/2 mile trips, it's my opinion that you just had a bad battery.

Yep bad battery. Get a new one and see what happens. Drive or at least start the thing once in awhile helps.

On my second since June 2005. First went 5.5 years. On my second and by accident drained twice which required a jump but all is good. I plan on getting a new one before next winter (if I still own it) cause I don't want any issues.
