What is your question?
Always ran fine then one day i parked it an in the morning nothing dead as could be. Couldnt jump it or anything. New batteries give power but won't crank it an dies overnight an can't jump it either an after turning off key the last time i tried it before I got out i heard repetitive clicking but just that once. Don't know if it happened any other time I wasn't focused one anything like that before.
How long has your 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe had this problem?
This one time hasn't worked since it was cold that night though

Hi, my name is Devin. I am an auto repair expert with the Car Genius team here at RepairPal. So sorry to hear you're having trouble with your vehicle. It sounds like your Tahoe has a serious case of the electrical gremlins. When a battery dies overnight and won't jump, it's often due to a parasitic drain—something's drawing power when it shouldn't. The repetitive clicking you heard could be a relay going haywire, stuck in the "on" position, or a sign of a faulty starter solenoid. Given that even a fresh battery drains quickly, I'd suspect a short circuit somewhere or maybe a power-hungry accessory like an aftermarket stereo or alarm system. The best way to track down the culprit is to test amperage through each circuit while the power is off.
