With high gas prices I don't drive my gas guzzler Silverado PU to much. Maybe once every two weeks. I have a new Battery from Sears which the cranking power is better than what Chevy recommends. The battery always dies still. What can I do to prevent it from being dead when I need the truck. Is this normal.
