thanks for info on batteries!

[Eliot Lim <eliot@u.washington.edu>]

it seemed that everybody replaced their batteries with aftermarket brands. i
still don't think i will consider unvented sealed batteries because of the
horror stories that i've heard on what they do to rear seats.  looks like the
sears diehard international is the front runner for me and also the
interstate if i come across it.  these fit nicely in the slot, right?

the dealer also told me i don't need to get a diesel capacity battery and
that something in the 800 CCA range would suffice.  (is that how they
are rated?)  any disagreement?
