Yeah, they are spendy... Sam's club had the best price on the Red Top (that's the model that is designed mainly for cars/trucks). It was $136 plus the core charge of course. Now I've got a perfectly good Motorcraft battery sitting at home and I'm not sure what to do with it. It's nearly new, but it's only 550 CCA's so it's way undersized for cold mornings. I guess maybe I'll put it back in the truck if I take it to a show since it looks more "original" than the Optima... but the Optima blends in nicely with all the red paint!

Howdy Randy... sounds kind of cozy there with the woodstove!
I gotta take off for a bit, get to run over to the electric company and set up an account for the new house. In this day and age, I have to go in person??? I guess that is how the rural electric coop's work. I suppose if they don't like me, I don't get electric!

A quick driveby good morning from a suddenly snowy NY to Pat, Rob, Randy and Jerry.
I took the day off today or else I would be in the same boat as both Pat and Rob.
I was going to head out and de-advertise the Edge by removing the mudflaps and license plate frames that the dealer installed on it, but with it snowing like a madman. It just dropped about an inch or so in the matter of 30 minutes.
