I noticed that too. The key is ZIP-tied into the "ignition"(?). I seriously doubt that no one has moved this under it's own power or atleast tried. Think of the geniouses employed at dealerships and auctions to move cars. In fact I'd be worried about a dead traction pack because it was left on for a month.

Sorry Ben, for adding to your worries.
