Could really just be a bad/dead battery. I have to replace mine every 1.5 - 2 years.

You sure it wasn't an interior light that might have been left on?

I’m pretty sure. I don’t even know if my car has interior lights, come to think of it.

A little while ago, someone broke in and left the door cracked, so the battery died. I jumped it and it worked fine. Drove it a few times after that, days in between, and no problems. Then, it died again maybe after sitting for a week or two and I jumped it again. Then it died overnight.

I don’t drive much anymore. Maybe it’s just time to let it go.

Advance Auto/Autozone around here will test your battery/charging system free.

That’s a good idea. I should take it there.

One of my daughters went there a few months ago. I tested her battery at my house and it was borderline. They load tested it, identified the dying battery, and replaced it in the parking lot while she waited.

I know this is a coupe, but manual and AWD, great looks, decent price (it’s high, but I can work it down, I’m sure). AWD means I won’t have to worry about traveling in the winter. I can drive this for a couple of years, then pick up a convertible.

That's pretty sweet. What happened to the Mustang?

Might be worth a trip down to FL to save ~ 40K miles.

Hmm, that’s interesting.

I’m possibly moving up my timetable, so the GT350 is currently out of budget.

They do a convertible version in my country. One of the very cars I've been looking at myself actually.
