LOL I like that one. Is someone stealing your hubcaps?
And, yeah, a good battery is pretty pricey. I got a whole rack of Optima batteries, just 'cause it has reached the point where I need that many on hand. Those still last nicely.
I can't remember the last time I actually had to buy one, but I'm certain it was about $100.
The guy at the sales counter said, "Do you want good, better, or best?" So I asked him for the prices. I could only afford good.
Yeah, Optima are nearly $300. Wait for AutoZone to do something stupid and let 'em go on sale for about half that, then buy enough to last you a minute or two. If your vehicle gets cold, you'll want a red top.
Hopefully I won't have to buy one for a while. But when I was under the hood, I found where some small furry critters have recently found a warm spot to sleep on my engine block. So I had to spend some time cleaning that shit up.
