what would cause my battery to keep going bad? ive had to replace my battery 3 times within the last 6months. ive had a loss of power in my car and a lot of people think the head gasket is going out in it, so could it be that? please any help or info would be awesome. thanks guys

have you had the Alt tested? what is the voltage whith the car running? have you checked the batt cables and grounds?
have you had the codes read?
Any mods would be helpful too.

Alternator regulator needs adequate grounding

Also, look at your battery terminals and ground cable.

You gotta have some sort of drain or bad charging system, as stated. But what actualy kills the battery is letting it completely drain. If something is wrong with your car's electrical, but you put the battery on a charger, or disconnect the possitive cable when you park it, the battery will be fine. If you let it drain and leave it for a week with 0 volts, it won't live long.

Head gasket won't affect battery. What batteries you buyin'? If you don't get enough CCA or you're buying used batteries, that may be a factor too.
