because the geniuses at GM put the battery under the back seat, which had to be removed to replace the battery.


Is that like the idea to put the fuel pump in the gas tank???

Yeah, aren't cars today FUN? I used to change my own oil. Now the drain plug is basically surrounded by engine and you can't get at it without an auto shop.

A friend recently had to put a new battery in his 4 year old Buick LeSabre. It cost him nearly $200 because the geniuses at GM put the battery under the back seat, which had to be removed to replace the battery.

That'd be a helluva car to try to jump start with jumper cables.
