[s-cars] battery replacement due

[Tom Green]

If you invest in an Odyssey AGM battery with recombinant gas  
technology you won't need to worry about venting explosive gases.  The  
PC1200 fits nicely since it is smaller than
those 41 or 91 group specs but has better performance.  The Optima  
never did fit under the seat without laying it down and compromising  
the hold down system which many tech inspectors do not like. The  
owners have gone to mass marketing rather than engineering standards  
so the quality of the Optima makes it a second rate battery.

The Odyssey can be shipped by conventional package express as well.
