... that many of us take for granted. Having to make this choice you are expected to make the responsible decision. The only person that it would hurt if you don’t take this type of thing seriously is yourself.

With crash safety devices such as multiple airbags and crush zones to ensure survival it's tough to think of purchas ...

Then you have to shift both cars into Park or Neutral, and put their parking brakes on. You want to double check that both the cars have the same amount of voltage (usually 12 volts). You should remove cell or vent caps if the battery has them. Then check again to make sure that your dead battery is not frozen. Cover each battery with a heavy cloth to protect ...
