Default Radio auto shutdown

Going to the drive in movies this weekend, and I was wondering if there is a way to bypass the auto shutdown of the radio. I really don't feel like starting the truck every half hour

Exactly. It shuts down. Unless you leave the key in the on position

If you do not want to leave it in the on position then I suggest you bring a battery powered radio with you so you can hear the movie. Not too many Drive-in's left...

Yeah, but it's pretty sad when our "new" trucks can't keep up with the "old" technology of a drive-in theater...
