    I went to the Chevy dealer nearby and aked them to get in an AC Delco Professional Platinum Battery. He called me back a couple of hours later and said that AC Delco no longer is making the Platinum line. I went onto AC Delco's website and the platinum battery is still on their site, but all of the links incorporated with it (features, comparisons etc.) were dead links. So what is going on here? The Chevy dealership was my last resort, I can't get one of these batteries anywhere. What have you guys heard?

    They are discontinued (I thought I mentioned that before :blush: ). However, according to my rep they will be relesing a better AGM battery soon. If you have a group size I may be able to find one for you. Shipping may be a bitch, but I will give it to you at my cost.

    Thanks for the great offer Sandt, I don't HAVE to get a battery right now, so I think that I will just wait. I do appreciate your willingness to help, It's great to have you on this forum. :)

    Does anyone know who makes "Resolute" batteries. I have a friend that works at a Mills Fleet Farm near by that can get me a "Resolute" AGM battery for about $80. I can't find information on them anywhere.

    My interstates keep breaking plates...

    Of course, that might not be representative of the brand..
    The Civic battery is actually smaller than golf cart and wheelchair batteries. :(

    Yeah, well, I went there, I thought the battery was only a year old, thought I'd get a new one at least mostly covered under warranty...
    Turns out it was actually 2 years old, and I was there, and they tested the thing, and spent about an hour with me, so hey.
    I felt obligated.
    Damn conscience.
