Electrical problem
2001 Isuzu Rodeo Question 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 160k miles

I have replaced the battery in my Rodeo 3x in the last 6 months. Most recently, my husband was driving it and the speedometer, ac, radio, electric windows, etc wouldn't work and I had the battery checked and it was bad. What could be draining the battery so quickly? I've had the alternator go out before and it just wouldn't turn over at all, just clicked repeatedly. This time the engine will turn over but the electrical issues happen as well as the car not moving when going from 'park' to 'drive'... what could be causing this? I'd like to have an idea of what's wrong before I take it to a shop and they try to tell me a million different things are wrong with it. Thanks!
