Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 2500? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Silverado 2500 stranded. Your Chevrolet Silverado 2500 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
