Well today was our first nice day in a long time, and as I sat in my office, my wife called. She wanted me to break out the D and get it started and ready for a ride. Seems she was on her way home and the bright blue sky got the best of her and she missed riding in the D. And I thought I was the D nut in the family. Broke out the battery, checked the fluids and warmed her up. I would like to add that after 4 months, not one fluid was down. Also on the battery thread from a while back, I have a gel battery from Advance Auto Parts chain. When I put it in the car, I noticed that on the strap it says "Optima". I got this last year for $120.00 reg price form the local store. It is 700 cranking amps. If anyone is looking for Optima quality and have an Advance Parts chain near them, it is the same battery.
