Default Re: battery

Just to drum in on this post.......I used a "battery tender" on my Gen 1 and the battery was fine for the entire 7 years that I owned the car. NEVER a problem. That's saying something as the 110 degree + heat in the summer in AZ will kill a battery very easily. I was very religious about plugging it in after every drive! Now, my 05 has about 5500 miles and again I am using the battery tender after every drive. Still the original battery, and as I said previously, the summer heat in AZ usually kills a battery after 1 or 2 years. The tender is the answer! It's the best insurance for saving the life of a battery!
