Just the opposite. The Toyotas I own which I DON'T drive often have sufferered early battery failure because they drain down due to parasitic drain from acessories like the electric clock.

But the Toyotas I drive daily have consistently had long lived batteries, presumably because they always stay fully charged. Also, I check the water level occassionally to make sure no cells ever run low.
