Re: Is the guy at Advance Auto full of it?

Every situation is different. I let my Pearlie sit sometimes for a week and it would fire right up . Another time 3 days and it would be dead. woke up one morning to find I left my door ajar parked in my garage all nigh. Car fired right up. And once left the dome light on while in a movie and it was dead .Funny thing about batteries. If the day before you had been on a 100 mile ride it might have been ok , but if you started it up , drove 3 miles to work and then started it up drove to the buss and sat with the key in on position ( see above what was on in that position ) there was not enough energy left to kick it over. a lady friend of mine use to use up a battery every 2 years . She never left town and started her car 7 times a day .
