Two guys and two gals were headed to Minneapolis on new years eve .They had a flat And I had a spare. I said I would let them take mine if they were coming home this way. Of course they were coming from Waterloo IA. And I never got my tire back. This happened on The MN. IA. border on Hwy. 63. No I didn't say what color they were. Thats prejudice.

I hope you don't need a lithium battery anytime soon, you'll need some new pants too. Bought 2 LiFePo4 batteries during the Black Friday sales, $200 each. Can't be used for car starting though. Yup, made the hi tech leap myself for trolling motor. 100A, Group 31, with Bluetooth!!! Redodo brand. Had no idea what that meant, had to get one of my kids to set it up. Can monitor battery real time on my phone now. Was like $170 delivered

I will find out real soon how much batteries cost, I need one for my truck and one for my Wheel Horse.
I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Just replaced the battery in the vehicle after it left me stranded twice. Got the biggest battery that would fit in the Murano, so not that big; cost me $235.00 with the 10 mm wrench which was twelve bucks. Don't know where all my 10 mm wrenches keep walking off too. I asked the guy at the parts store if the battery was made out of gold or lithium? He laughed, but he did let me use his cart to get the new battery out to my car across the parking lot. Prices are ridiculous and only a three year warrantee. I wasn't charged for a core, as I was bring the old battery back when I finally wrestled out of the engine compartment. Auto zone puts them in free.Worst thing is sometimes finding the battery. Put one in my wifes buick enclave 1 time. Back floor board , passenger side. I mean tech at auto zone put it in......

I hope you don't need a lithium battery anytime soon, you'll need some new pants too. Bought 2 LiFePo4 batteries during the Black Friday sales, $200 each. Can't be used for car starting though. They're amazing for solar. Thousands of cycles at 100% depth of discharge and life expectency in the decades. They'll also accept a high charge currrent until nearly 100% charged. It makes it easy to get them fully recharged every day. Just be careful about charging in cold temps if it doesn't have low temp protection. I got a couple 12v 100 ah with self heating for around 300 each. The self heating increased the price significantly, but I need it. They're in my deer blind. The self heating means when the sun comes out, if the batteries are too cold to charge, the BMS diverts the charge current to a heating coil inside the battery. When they get up to safe temp, they start accepting charge. I also bought a couple LiFePo4 batteries for around $1,200 each. like these. I DIY'd an auto heat source for these because they're in an off-grid garage.

No,,,,, they delivered a cargo box load for free…( replacement bid) Solar field change out. All still test at 80 percent or better …. ![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2025/02/full-31-247055-img_0767.jpeg) More on the way and the cargo box is a nice bonus
