Don't know what you did to p*** someone off but I have never had Autozone balk on a legitimate warranty. I am not advertising for them just stating fact.

I did not p*** anybody off I went to 3 different autozone and had them tested their machine always said it was good but I could never convince them to disconnect one battery and test them individually so they always told me they were good. And they were in warranty only two months old. I even showed the guy how my truck would barely start. I went and bought the Die Hards and everything has beef fine. I wouldn't buy a lug nut from autozone after that. Idiots!

I went with the (2) DieHard Platinum Group 65, 48 month replacement, 52 month prorated for 100 month total. I've always had good luck with the DieHards.

On our 37' 1/5 whl I use Interstate Golf Carts.
