QC killed another battery. Yes it did all you Sayers that believe it will not. No question asked this time free swap out out. 21 months was the best I could do. So, since 2007 I have spent &49.95 on batteries. Free all the rest of the time. Auto Zone comes through again.

Auto zone batteries are horrible. Every time I've had one it's failed prematurely.

True. After 17 or 20+ months get a new one. Heck my first battery form the factory only lasted 22 months. They , auto zone, has a new type now. Go git one lol.

Just so you know, Autozone Duralast Gold batteries are the same as Sears Diehard batteries, and the same as Interstate batteries. They are made on the same line at Johnson Controls in San Antonio. (my brother's wife's sister is the head of Human Resources there, so if you need a job I can probably get you an interview :) ).

Johnson Controls makes the three above batteries, as well as some of the Everstart Maxx batteries (Exide makes the marine batteries), ProStart, Costco's Kirkland batteries, Acura, Advance Auto Parts, Autocraft, Western Auto, Tough One, Hellar, Alliance, American Hardware, Ames, Varta, Blain's Farm & Fleet, Bosch, Champion, as well as the OEM batteries for Daimler Chrysler, Honda, Toyota, Nissan and Isuzu.

Kind of like appliances a ton of brand names and very few manufacturers.

Missed out on Father's Day dinner. Got a load to Alabama instead. 4 loads in 4 days. I know at least 1 came from a former Nations Express broker. Let's keep em coming.
