Have you had the battery checked out? Sounds like you've got a constant draw in the system that could be draining it. Had this problem with a 5.0 Cougar and it was the voltage regulater in the alternator. Good luck!

Sounds like it could be a ground issue then. Check the ground cables for good connection and any signs of corrosion. This is classic for most any vehicle, but seems to be really common lately here on the SN boards.
