Thanks for everyone's help on this. Just placed my order for a CTEK Battery Charger and Cigarette Lighter Combo

Went to Autozone again on Friday but talked to a differnt person this time. Told her that I wanted to buy a new battery....when she looked me up in the system she said "your still within the replacement period, do you want to swap out the existing Optima Red Top?". I said sure.

So she pulled it, and checked it. It was reading a "low charge reading" so she started telling me that she thought the battery wasn't my problem. Well, I told her about some of my research (basically what I've seen on the forum) that I had done and the problems I was having and she replaced it with no questions....brand new Optima Red Top!!

Thanks again for everyone's help! Hopefully this will fix my issues and I'll know to take better care of this one!
