It's not so bad, I changed the battery in my SVT last night out in the driveway.

You just have to dress for it.

No one makes us live here, we're all just too stupid to leave.

You are correct. I am too stupid to leave although my kids are still living here too and I thought they were pretty smart....Maybe not.

teh 02, with the original battery and 130K+....turned over plenty enough to get her started...I know that battery will fail and I'd doubt I get anything to give me the same reliability again. Factory battery FTW!
