Question for you guys…

The first new battery went dead after less than a year. Wouldn’t even take a charge. Got the second new battery. Put it in the car. Drive it into the garage. It sat there for the last few weeks while we took care of the wheels and tires. Put it in the ground and went to fire it up and nothing… Hooked the charger up to the battery and it won’t charge again.

What am I missing? Seems like we either hot a second defective battery in a row (unlikely) or the car is killing batteries. Not draining them… killing them.
