After reading all of the replies to this thread, I'm not sure if there is a serious problem. Maybe just a starter that draws a little more than I'm used to and turns slower. It always starts the car pretty quickly. I did clean the battery terminals, the positive make a lot of corrosion for some reason.

You can test for draw by disconnecting the cable and placing your MM between the cable and terminal if it registers voltage there is a draw. If there is a draw you can start pulling fuses until the draw goes away and that circuit is the culprit.
I have not done a general draw test on the system yet but I will. The battery does not seem to be getting drained while parked, just the slow starter mentioned previously.

Thanks again for all of the input.
