Dam, Another Battery!
Saturday I was listening to my radio and everything when dead after ten minutes. Pulled the Optima and took it back to Sears, they said it was shorted. This is the fourth battery in six years, one Delco, one Die Hard, and two red top Optima.
Do these cars eat batteries or what ????????????????????

Mine does not eat batteries. My Interstate battery is over 5yrs and still works good. Sears is notorious for doing shady things with their batteries. They have been busted several times by dateline NBC for cleaning up returned batteries and putting them back on the shelf as new. Buyer beware.

I've been saying for several months, that Optima batteries are no damn good.
3 Red Tops in 4.5 years. You'll never catch me w/ another one in my car....
