I must be doing something wrong with my R-59's.I've had two now in my Camaro.The first one lasted 7yr on a driver.I think as long as the electrolyte level is just covering the plates and your charging system is in good shape there is no reason the R-59 can't live in peace.I've always had one of those battery mats between the battery and the tray and never had anything on it.I may just have good luck,check you levels........
