yeah...i've been putting off replacing this one...just been really careful about not draining it...i was on the phone and trying to carry a lot of stuff inside and i didnt think about leaving the door open...so 10 minutes later...dead batt
 
thats what you get for buying one at walmart 😛

the only time i ever had to buy a battery, I went to sears and got the best diehard that would fit in my car.
