Time for a new battery???

[dallas007]

I have a 2004 H2 w/ 27,000 miles. That makes my battery almost 5 years old. So my question is while I have no indication of any problems now, is it smarter to replace it now while I can do it in my garage vs. finding it dead while I am sitting in the middle of the desert. I hate to toss a perfectly good battery away. Any suggestions??

If you want to be safe, then yes 5 years you got your moneys worth out of it. On the other hand it could last 8 years who knows. Safe or Sorry??? If I were goning to the desert I have a nice fresh yellow top.

I agree....you got way more use out of the battery than expected. could last another couple of years or could die tomorrow. The cost of a battery is cheaper than the cost of a tow...
