Battery Life in Cold Weather

Battery Life in Cold Weather

Cold weather can make starting your car difficult. The current forecast is showing some mighty nice temps through Sunday 2/2. Then more seasonal temps for the next several days. NOW would be a great time to get that battery replaced if you had issues during the last cold spell.
