Is tough on batteries....the heat is worse than cold, apparently. My sister lives there and needed a new battery while I was there. I went with her together and was surprised to learn that warranties there are shorter than warranties up North. So Floridians would know which batteries are good! I always thought interstate were good for some reason....not anymore. The people at BJ's asked me if I wanted to get a new one while I was there. Said "no thank you" & headed to the Walmart (I was reading up on them while I was waiting for managers and stuff).
