I think i may need a new battery that might hold up better to cold temperature. Right now its -3 degrees, and it says "feels like -22 degrees here in iowa. http://www.weather.com/weather/local/52748?lswe=52748&lwsa=WeatherLocalUndeclare d&from=whatwhere i want to buy a battery real soon cause im sick of this, will a red top do the trick since it will probably put out like twice the power when starting as a stock battery? ......im also sick of my cd player freezing..... |

Silver Member Username: Teddy21Ann Arbor, MI USA Post Number: 442 Registered: Feb-06 | im have problems with my yellow top right now because of the cold, if i were you i would get a red top or a die hard gold. Both have great warranties so if they ever go bad take em back to Sears and and they will replace for ya. I used to work there and used to sell the krap outta those gold die hards. They have lots of CCA's and a long warranty. |
