All of the above, they're right around the corner from me, when I bought the
battery for the Jetta they were $25 cheaper than anybody else, they stand by
their warranties and the product is good.
10F isn't cold, we were at -10F last week, thats kinda cold. I bet Mitch has
been seeing -20F which is cold, anything less than that is really cold.
So no, 10F didn't kill your battery, the battery sucked and just happened to
fail at 10F.

The best deal in terms of warranty or cheap price? Or good product??
And BTW, 10 degrees in my neck of the woods is no warmer than 10 degrees in
Curt-ville.

'Nother DieEasy bites the dust. No surprise there. For the same
money you could probably get an MB Battery from one of the Stealers
who offer great discounts to MBCA members. Or for 50-75% you can
buy one from advance auto with the online discount.
