Could be a weak alternator using some of the battery during vehicle operation. Have alternator tested and also inspect battery cables and terminals.

Must have an electric draw somewhere then... have you searched for anything that may draw it such as glove compartment lamp, vanity mirror lamp etc..? This link may also help..
