    Is it normal for a stereo to turn off when you shut down the engine?

    1989 C1500 2 Door. Stereo works, but as soon as you shut the engine off, the stereo turns off as well. Is this normal? I want to be able to listen to the stereo with the key in the ignition but engine not running. Thanks for any help
