I hope not. I got it running, drove around for an hour to try charging up the battery. Going to try starting the car first thing tomorrow and hope it's good, but most likely I'll try to warranty the battery because it's only 1.5 years old :\

Hope you didn't leave, a nice young lady with a WRX was able to jump my car in 3 minutes after I'd been waiting for "Subaru roadside assistance"'s third party to help me and never showed after 2.5 hours. Fucking assholes.
