And it breaks when you have a thousand things to do to. They don’t make batteries like they used to. Take care and have a blessed rest of the week Scott.

Buy an AGM type battery instead of the wet cell flooded type you bought. They cost a bit more, but last much longer and are better suited to this type of use.

Thanks. I’ll look into it next time.

One of the last big jobs I worked on was a tunnel, they had 2 kubota type vehicles. One of them, we had to air the tire before we used it, it had a slow leak. & getting a new tire was out of the question! It was kind of ridiculous...🙄

Good point on all the vibrations. Didn’t think about that. Nothing last as long as it used to.

It’s always something breaking around here.

I’ve had to put a battery in my RTV a couple times. I don’t think they have a very good charging system.

Thanks. Guess four years was a good run.

They cost more and don't last near as long as they used to! If you got 4 years out of the OEM then you did pretty good. But yes, they should last longer.

You’re right about the expense. $$. I had sticker shock.

car batteries are lucky to last 3-4 years not like the old ones. These are new cheap and short life batteries run one down and leave it dead...they are already about 25% less than they were.

Thanks. They always seem to go out at the worst times.
