Eric, Welcome! Where are you and your S10E located? I have a 1998 S10E here in Folsom, CA, near Sacramento. It came from Gulf Power in Pensacola, FL. It has less than 4000 miles on it, and has Panasonic PbA batteries. It runs well, but the batteries have been abused, so the ra...

Darell and Tom, I hadn't heard that the batteries are unavailable, just outrageously expensive. I do know that Saturn dealers have raised their price to almost $700 each, higher than the Chevrolet price. The batteries were available from Saturn until recently for around $200-$...
