It's time that we all have to face the reality that batteries aren't what they were 15-20 years ago. Back then 5-6 years for a battery was norm, some going 8.
Now if a battery makes it 3 years I start shopping figuring it will quit anyday.


Just generally speaking above, not directed to you. It's been a while. Hope all is well Randy.

Been running pretty hard and realizing I need to start slowing down. Sold the house last week and now we're renting by the month as we look for a place to settle down, hopefully with a few acres to spread out. Don't want the neighbor to close, tired of looking at them now. Bigger place, not a bigger house, we'll see. Really want a shop to work in, fix things and relax a little.

Yep, nothing is like it used to be, some things worth fixing, others not so much anymore. Hope everyone at your place is doing good as well!

Looking for an ATV battery now, supposed to be a capacitor type out there, anybody have any info to share?
