In Reply to: $340 is OUTRAGEOUS!!! How do they sleep at night?? posted by Big-T on August 19, 2001 at 22:31:12:

...makes a whole lot of sense from a business perspective. By charging outragous prices for these quick things, they price themselves out of those mundane jobs that take up time but don't bring in money. What's left over is the more valuable business, bigger jobs.

Nonetheless - do not pay anything near that for battery replacement. Just go elsewhere. Check the sources mentioned in the other posts.

Please provide any brand name replacement, model # and cost for the battery - outside of the dealer. Dealer quoted me $340 installed which seemed to be high. I searched the archives and didn't see any replacements.

Thanks
