Success!!

Boosted from my buddies truck (Old chev pick-up), instead of what I was boosting from earlier (98 jeep cherokee)... and it reluctantly turned over and started. I ran around, and yelled for a bit in the parking lot.

I let it idle for at least 45 minutes while I went into a restaurant.. Came out, attempted to drive home, and it stalled when I put on the heat, headlights, and turn signal... So obviously the battery is done. Boosted once more, and made it home.

Thanks for you help everybody, all I have to do now is pick up a decent battery.
