in the transmission while the vehicle is idling. I believe medium/heavy duty trucks have an idle control switch to control the idle rpm, a higher setting helps warm up the truck faster in the winter but thats about it. The rpm doesn't change in my F-150 at all between 4 Hi and Low...
No, you cannot drain a car battery while driving. The alternator recharges the battery while the car is running, so it is not possible to drain it. However, if you leave your car lights on while the car is off, this can drain the battery. Do car batteries charge while idling? No, ...

idling in the driveway to partially recharge the battery after having been boosted with the power pack because of a totally dead battery. I know, I should not let let it idle, instead I should drive around (with the power pack in the vehicle for sure), but I do not have the time ...
