    Re: Battery issues again......

    I only fish about 75 to 100 times a year usually, but I have been using autozone marines (i know everyone says awwww But) If they don't hold up I take em back and get new ones. no questions so far. course with 3 boats, 3 campers and 2 golf carts I am a helluva customer for them when I do belly up to the counter at buying time

    What is their warranty..........2 years replacement or 18 months??

    I used to really like the wally world maxx batteries but they changed the warranty from 3 yr replacement to 18 month replacement and NO prorate after.

    So, a 2 or 3 yr replacement warranty would be worth a few extra bills.....especially for me

    Thanks,

    That sounds GREAT........I think if you puke out a battery in less than 2-3 years, it should be replaced, but after that..........well you prob got your moneys worth.

    I talked to the wally world district manager and he said that so many folks were abusing the exchange policy on marine batteries that they had to change it.

    Funny thing......the automotive MAXX batteries still carry a 3 year exchange and a 9 year prorated warranty........

    I guess there is some truth to his story.

    Later,
