Junkyard shopping for a car battery!

$70

I didn't take my old one, maybe that would have made a difference.

But, I was trying to see if the old one would take a charge, so I didn't bring it.

I am too old for this mess.

For real, for real!

Times have changed.  I been working on my vehicles, since I bought my first used car, low maintenance.

Me and my big brother would be in the Junk yard, with out tool boxes, getting parts, lol.

Our father was a mechanic, we get it from him.🤣

But, I don't want to talk about the flat tire I changed and guys was looking at me, but, I got to work on time, on a

donut, lmaooooooooooooooo.

💯Or about the time, one of my sons put some spark plugs in my car, because, he didn't want me to do it, or thought I couldn't?  Well, I let him do it, and the car was jerking, so, I pulled over at Auto Zone, bought some new spark plugs, set them, and took out the old ones, and installed the new ones, got to work on time, smoothly,🤣

But, this is ridiculous.

I wonder how much batteries cost for a Tesla

Good luck with that.

Sometimes, if you need something done, you have to do it yourself.
But, I'm too old now, for real.
I care, but, I crashed my other car into some rocks, now, my bumper was hanging off, I have duct tape on it, because, I don't feel like fixing it correctly, lol.
I have the part that fell off, these cars not worth the money we pay for them anyway, if I had a metal bumper like was on my Jeep, it would not have popped loose, lol.
That's why I like older vehicles, they can take a hit.
Be safe.

My oldest son, looking at me, shaking his head because, I put that black duct tape on there, lmaoooooooooooo.
When people see your vehicle been hit, or crashed, they stay away from you, lmaooooooooooooooo. So, I will fix it when I get to it, or ask my brother to do it, lol
I'm not worried about how it looks, long as it start up, lmaooooooooooo, I'm out!

If you bring your battery to Auto Zone they will charge it up for free. If you get a new one and give them the old one they will take $22 off the price.

The $22 is a mandatory charge to recycle the old battery.
If you buy a new one at Auto Zone and don't give them the old at that time, you can still bring in the old one within 90 days and they will refund the $22. Maybe the junkyard will do that. If the junkyard won't, you can still take it to Auto Zone and they will give you a $10 merchandise credit (gift card) even if you didn't buy it there. Good  Luck!!
