    Never heard of looking for that. But yes recently it has been its coldest. And the car sat from friday night to monday morning during a winter storm Saturday. I will check that. She doesnt care too much for the car and I belive its one of the cheapest batteries you can get is in there.

    Oh yeah I have hated that stupid stang from day one.

    Dub - you remembered I have the firebird? Speaking of which, she doesnt like that either, man it would have been nice to be able to sell her my car. But........

    We are looking at a 2002 Axiom tomorrow.

    We decided to not mess with the Stang untill saturday. I will keep you posted.

    Definitely find an '04 Axiom, you won't regret it. Actually, you'll always be thinking of how to swap it into the VX so she won't notice. :bwgr:

    Ever since we sold my wife's '04 she can't help but make a comment when she sees one.

    The 04's seem to be about an average of $2,000 more than the 02's.
    I have forgotten what are the noticeable differences between them?

    The '04 is the only year with the 3.5L Direct Injection engine which gives you additional HP, torque and better mileage plus a super-beefy Aisin transmission. We stayed low 20's around town and mid 20's highway. The previous years essentially have the same drivetrain as the VX.

    Humm, for some reason I thought all of the axioms had the DI, and that was why they averaged about 3-4 better mpg, and that the 04's were just tweaked to gain some better HP. I had no idea bout the Aisin though. Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.
