Re: [FWDLK] Costco batteries

[Dave Homstad <dhomstad@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My current battery came from O'Reilley. It is an AutoLite group 27. I 
upsized from the original 24 to a 27 because it was an option, I had the 
larger rubber tray underneath and larger hold down available, and it has 
more power. I selected AutoLite because even though it is a modern 
design, it is at least from the original manufacturer and it's black.
