vehicle battery advice
I'm thinking of replacing my vehicle battery, as it's over 7 years old now. It's an AC Delco and factory original equipment.
I'm not having any problems with it, but it's been through 7 hard, very cold, too long prairie winters and I'm starting to think, maybe I'm pushing my luck.
I don't want to get stuck in the middle of a blizzard, on a lonely back country road...with a dead battery.
My previous tow vehicle also had a factory original equipment AC Delco and it lasted for about 7-8 years, can't recall exactly.
Both vehicles discussed are gas engined.
Anyways probably in the next 6 months, before the next winter sets in I'm thinking I will go down to my Chevy dealer and get another AC Delco.
I always try to get as much cold cranking amps and very good quality, as I have found it's not wise to go cheap on batteries.
But before I do what I've always done, thought it can't hurt to ask for any battery recommendations ?
Any recommendations/ advice about battery's ?
