[s-cars] Santa needs to know what battery is best for a '92 UrS

[Cody Forbes]

At the shop we sell Interstates (as do many shops because of  
Interstates consignment program). About two years ago where i was  
working at the time we had no less than 10 batteries fail within  
months of being installed, including one in my car and two or three in  
the boss's cars. I'm weary of them now, but don't know of a better  
brand since Optima got sold and started making crap batteries too.

Rick, if you are reading, have you seen any more issues with the  
batteries?
