A while back some folks had mentioned the use of Wal-mart batteries in their Bird. I was thinking of replacing my (4) 6 volt batts this spring, presently have old Interstates. I also wanted to put in (1) or (2) new starting batts. on the curb side as some of you have done. Will have to find out whats neededto best startmy 534 c.i. gasser. Iwas thinking of using all Wal-mart batts., but am nowlooking at Reliability issues . I have a 2001 Jeep GC, and have just replaced the Everstart Maxx 65N for the 3rd time, Oct-2007, Mar-2008, and Nov.-2008. It is the correct battery for this car, and the entire electrical system has been checked, no problems. Consumer Reports just rated this battery very high on their list, however, I don't think that their rating was anyway based on problems customers have experienced. Would appreciate any input about any (wet cell) batteriesthat you have experience with. Thanks, George Burke 1977FC Charlotte
