Won't start (long) (archive)

My 2000M (with a grand total of 3000 miles)
won't start. Just a clicking with a lot of
flashing lights. I trickle charged it for 24
hours, still nothing. I jumped it to my
Dodge truck per owner's manual and advice
from my dealer, same result.
My dilemma: Do I call Roadside Assistance and
have it towed to my nearest dealer? Trouble is
he's 60 miles away and I didn't buy from them in
the first place due to bad reports about their
service and I didn't like their operations when I
was pricing my car. The dealer I bought the car
from says if I can get it there they will replace
the battery no problem, but they are 100 plus miles
away. When they tow do they put it on a trailer?

Any suggestions for getting it started on my own?
Thanks, Hal
