Bill,

Thanks for the tip.  I am now at 105,000 miles, a little more over three
years.   And keep going and going!.

Carlos, in my experiance  my daughter 2000  Accent & my son's 2001
Elantra the orignal battery last about 4 years, mileage has nothing to
do with it :)

one way to check your battery to see how much is left in it is to  let
the car sit over night (ie not after driving it becuase you get a
surface charge)  & measure the voltage with a digital meter   if it is
getting down near 11.0  volts it is getting close. It will run & run &
them one day it will not work.  Sorry I don't have a web site to back me
up...

I went to Wal-mart & got a 39.95 battery (# 47-3 I think) & is is
working fine in both of thier cars.  I have a 2002 & I still have 12.4
or 12.5 on my battery..
