I just got out of work now, i started Thunder and let her pur for awhile she barely started even with the battery tender on, guess its not strong enough. time for a new battery.

I put her away though , not in the mood to drive her. guess i'll go clean out the shed.

What type of tender did you use? I tried a Battery Tender Plus 1.25amp ... POS it never got battery to float mode. Turned off after 8hrs even though green flashing light was on and battery wasn't 80%.

Switched to a CTEK 4.3amp It has a special COLD mode setting and goes thru 8 stages with a sepearate light for each stage so you always know what'sgoing on , including a desulfation step & an optional recondition step. Got battery 100% +volts in 2 days

Not sure which one i had on it, it was a gift so i tried it. The battery is shot anyway so doesn't matter what charger i use.

Just replaced mine also. Love the new GM quality. 4 years on a battery, 3 years and paint looks like crap, replaced tires after 1 year, LOL. Thank god my trailblazer still works after 10 years. Need a good auto body shop now, any suggestions?
