Time For A New Battery!

[Velokid1]

Well that's good news. I think it's worth a shot if I might get another 6-12 months out of it.

I heart my bus again after 2 yrs of relative neglect and it feels good.

I'm still running a Diehard Gold battery I purchased back in November 2005. That's right 2005. The battery is dated 10/2005

I just replaced my DieHard Gold last month in my '76 Bus, It lasted 7 years.
I miss Sears.

Bettery quality seems to have nose-dived ... right alongside their warranties.
My best battery was the BobD Optima red 2004-2017. Now I read reviews full of disappointed buyers,

What did you replace it with?

I've been getting 5-6 years with the ones I've been buying from Firestone.

I was laid up for 6 weeks and unable to start the bus and my Durango, so both batteries died.
The Dodge battery was 2 years old and would not hold a charge, Autozone Duralast.
They replaced it no charge, so I bought a Duralast from them that was the same form factor
as the Diehard. Unable to purchase a AGM battery for either. I understand that the Autozone Duralast
is made by the same factory that make the Diehard for Advaned Auto (which just went bankrupt).
The modern way is less for more $. I am so thankful not to have any of the junk hi tech which are
problems waiting to happen. This new techology inflates the price and is the first thing to become obsolete.
