yes .... your new battery could not be holding a charge
properly if it was never fully and completely charged
correctly to begin with.
...an easy test. when you park it at night... disconnect it.
If it still dies after a few days... you'll know it's the
battery.
Are you sure the vehicle charging system is putting out
enough to keep it charged correctly?
