i got a new battery put in and a few weeks later my roommate ran my car outta gas and left the hazzards on, drainin the battery.

one good jump and she was back to normal.

a battery can with stand a few deep cycles, but more than 2 or 3 will kill it.

I havn't been having the best of luck with my new 'ville either. Harmonic balancer, transmission mount and major brake overhaul within the 1st week. All things that were not present at purchase. I'm working to do something about the brake costs...you will read in another post soon.

What you are worried about is driving it too far and killing the battery...having no power and not being able to get home.

Don't forget ... some of the craziest electrical problems are related to low voltage.
