I generally use the Radio to check the traffic conditions so I don't get stuck on the Interstate between exits for a hour or more.

How about starting the car then turn on the Radio. Starter motors are over a hundred amps drain and battery voltage drops accordingly even when everything is new. In older cars the starter draw can double the drain before they fail typically.
