I work at AutoZone. I've tested my battery before, and it is a bad battery. One of the previous owners put in a large MaxxLife battery with 875 CCA, so it can still crank the engine over easily. I plan on using as large of a deep cycle marine battery as possible when my battery finally dies.
I did purchase a 5 watt solar panel from Rural King for $21 that I plan on hooking up to help keep the battery topped on when I'm not driving it. I'm on the highway a lot and plan on cycling the alternator on and off for 10 minutes each. During town driving, I'll probably only have it off when I'm accelerating and on when I'm cruising, slowing down, or idling.
