Went out to the truck after church today to go to my moms, and nothing. Would not start. When I got in, I heard a buzzing sound. I knew at that moment, it was the battery. Tested the battery and it was way down. Charged it up, but there is no green light in the site glass. The battery has been in there since I bought the truck. I guess it's time for another one. I guess this gives me a good reason to but an Optima.

Optima was bought out, they are not what they used to be. Just get a top of the line Interstate. Save some dollars.

Yeah. You guys are right. Just looked at Auto Zone and other places for the Optima. $179. And it only has a 3 year replacement warrenty. I'll pass. Where can I find a Interstate Battery at?
