I had to jump start my truck, drove it 58 miles all fine. Got to destination, shut it down. Started it a couple times. Let it sit for about an hour and checked it.... dead. I jumped it again and drove 58 miles home...all fina. Got home, wanted to take battery off, opened hood and found smoke coming from the battery. When I tried to loosen the terminals the top of the battery appeared soft. What is your opinion?
