Mine went into battery protection mode after about an hour with the key in accessory position at the drive in movies (Radio on)

Coy I think you're getting confused with the accessory delay circuit that turns on when the key is cycled off and the door is still closed

Good for her, but what's an FT job?

It still shouldn't matter.. if the truck will turn the radio off in a hour then it should turn the damn lights off also.. My 96 Lincoln Mark VIII and 2000 silverado would kill EVERYTHING after a few minutes if left on.
