The battery in my '05 is the original and I'm thinking about replacing it before I get stuck somewhere. I'm also thinking about a rebuilt one for $28 instead of a new one that is around $85. Any thoughts on both questions?

 

A rebuilt battery? never hear of such an animal. Personally I would get a new one.

 

Maybe he meant recharged battery sounds more like it. I would get a new one also better in the long run.

 

I would just get you a new one... that way its fully covered.

 

I always buy a new battery. I've never heard of a "refurbished" battery either.

 

Here in Denver there are several places that offer for sale rebuilt batteries for around $30 with a 2 year garantee. They just replace the insides on recyled batteries. They are very popular here.
Rocky Mountain Battery Service in Wheatridge, Colorado is one.

 

ha ha hell yea i love the broncos.anyways...just know that your taking a chance with everything if they only replace the inside.dont forget they leak all the time and are known to.i would make sure you get a warranty on it and go from there if its 30 bucks.
