I need a new Battery for my 4runner and was wondering if anyone knew of a descent place either online or around here to pick one up. I dont need something solid state or super heavy duty, just something descent that wont die down if I roll my back window down while the truck is off (lol).

Thanks...

Gisel, I was looking at the picture page and I do have to admit, you look pretty good for a gaming female. Having said that, don't expect any sympathy when we meet on the battlefield. I am a fighter first, lover second.

If you drive your truck everyday I would suggest the Optima redtop. I got one from batteries plus for a bit over $80. (for any other battery purchases I would not recommend BP - they are way over priced)

I have a DIE HARD GOLD in my garage, works fine summer and winter. I think it is a little less than 3yrs old. If you want it i'll trade it to you for the cards i have of yours that you were going to trade me.

How in the hell did you pay that little for a red top!! The best price i could find ONLINE was like 100-110 plus 20 shipping! Are you sure that's what you paid?

Battery City in MPLS is a battery wholesaler. Their on the east side of the river between Broadway and Plymouth Aves. They have most sizes of batteries in stock and are about $10-20 cheaper than other places. They have StartRite batteries which are suppose to be the same as Die-Tards (except they don't come with one pre-dead cell like Die-Tards.)

I have two dead Red Tops, a dead yellow top, a large panaosonic, 2 dead jetski batteries, and a dead Walmart battery - you are welcome to any of them for free. [Wink]

Nice Chad offer him a dead battery [Embarrassed]

You might be able to bring the Optimas back to life by trickle-charging them for a while. The rest will fit nicely in a landfill.

Sure, no problem. Mikey has the yellow top and it's got a hole in it, but I will bring you at least one red top.
