Some might consider this immoral, but Napa has a 2 year no questions asked warranty on batteries. I buy a new battery, set a 23 month reminder on my phone(and write it on the battery), and go swap it out at 23 months. Napa has never given any issue about this.
I had a friend drive across the country in his 1980s 4runner with his alternator dead. All he did was plan his trip around Napa locations, then he'd stop and swap his battery out. He alternated(ha) between two batteries the entire trip, replacing em along the way. He had to do this, kinda, cuz nobody had hsi alternator in stock. Napa never gave him any trouble.
Batteries are insanely expensive nowadays so I have no qualms with this.
I busted the bolt off my intake pipe, again, so I had to run to ace to get new bolts for that. I think this is the 3rd or 4th time I've had to replace this bolt, lol. It's VERY obvious when it comes off. That exhaust bang gets annoying.
