I believe SpursWoman has an XTerra. Maybe she can get User to take a look at it?
Angel, you might want to do some routine checks to make sure there isn't something draining the battery in your car.
Not saying you should worry, but I had to replace TWO batteries in my car. They just kept going dead. In two months. I had several people look it over, and no one could figure out what was killing them.
It turns out the overhead visor had worn out and was no longer depressing the button which kept the light from turning off (the little one that accompanies the mirror).
Turns out that a $2 light caused me $120 worth of batteries!
Just go around your car and make sure that it was just an old battery and not a combination of corrosion and other factors. Being sure = cheaper!

Thanks for the advice guys.
I do want to have my mechanic look the car over.
Today it was a bad battery. It was seriously corroded. But the Auto zone guy was very helpful and I am good to go now.
He checked and my alternator is fine.
The battery cost me about $66 dollars and comes with a warranty.
I also had to purchase the connectors and pay for a mile's worth of towing.
All in all it cost me around $75. but the relief I feel is truly priceless.
Did you get the Autozone guy's number? Maybe he does plumbing too.
Mine's only a year old ... the worst that's happened so far is a tire I have that needs to be repaired, fortunately.
Glad it was only the battery, V.![]()
Thanks!![]()
Glad to hear it was only the battery.
Make sure he checks the blinker fluid.
Now stop hot rodding that Nissan all over town!![]()

Here's hoping your car is fixed for the next 3 years~!!![]()
The reason I got an SUV because I had just been hit and my car totalled and I was afraid to be in anything but a big car.
I did not have time to get over this fear because my m mom was on her way back to China to continue her mission work and wanted to get me into a new vehicle before she left.
But please, continue to pick on me.

This is when all the fawning over Rasho instead of finding a real deal BF that brings in a cool 9.50/hr in a steady 20-30 hr/week job hurts.
You have a boyfriend right now and chances are he knows someone that could fix your car.
I just saw that.
Very clever![]()

It's not like I have turned down any decent ( much less great offers.)
My basic criteria for considering a guy to date is that he must have a reliable car, a working cell phone, and a job to pay for both.
I have yet to find an available guy who can manage all three of those things- forget things like eye color preference, sense of humor, and intelligent level.
I know several great guys but smart girls have already claimed all of them.
It is slim pickings out here.
