I also have a 900 watt stereo system, so I need a good one.

Current battery is the one i got with the vehicle and it lasted 4 years, but its losing crank power real quick in the pennsylvania cold.


I dont want a Die Hard battery because they cost too muc, but I'd like somewhere that does free installation.

Need recommendations for today after work.

Die hard is expensive? Your talking about an investment that will last you around 4 to 5 years. What I usually do is go to wallmart and buy the Everstar MAXX battery. It has a pretty long warranty. I then keep the receipt. Right before the warranty expires I get the battery exchanged saying it's bad. I do it will the next battery and the next battery. That pretty much keeps me out of ever having to buy a battery for the car again.

Christ, you sound like a domestic fanboy trying to make import fanboys look bad.

You got that backwards. Negative cable is first off, last on.

i meant that specifically for his truck, not a new vw lol. and yes i had it backwards (fixt).

ive changed a battery on a old vw though. and a 2003 chrysler 300m which is retarded as hell.

I don?t know how to change a tire and took me half of an hour on my former Stratus.

You need installation? I just bought a new battery and they wanted 20 dollars to install ... I told the guy to give me the battery and I'd give him my old one in 5 minutes. 20 bucks is a joke for an installation charge.

Abusing the warranty makes you a cheap asshat.

I think they are screwing up by letting you continually get new batteries.....the warranty period most places isn't supposed to start over again every time you get a new one....it's supposed to date back to the original purchase.
