I've noticed that if I have cables, I can usually get someone to let me jump my car off. I wasn't able to push start mine, I tried, and tried and even tried when it had a good battery. I am just not comfortable with a skippy battery. It's totally your call, and if I was tight on cash, I'd run the battery. If I was easily able to swing the cost, I would be really considering a battery. But first, I'd Hafta haul it in and have it tested.. If the machine calls it good,, Mmkay... And the absolute fanciest charger/tester I've seen is at Wal-Mart. I left the key on on my backhoe,, and they charged it, took about five hours, tested it, handed me a printout of how it performed under various loads,, and rated it as a healthy battery. And it's hanging in, after two years..
