Whatever smarta$$, I speak from experience, you speak from your backside. There's a difference. If you live somewhere with subzero temperatures then it seems there are bigger issues at hand. What venting battery vapor? $30.... 3 years garanteed. If you don't like it don't buy it. My point is that there is no point *unless you have a kilowatt or more of power in your trunk* in which case a bigger alternator is necessary along with a battery, a redtop or yellowtop is overkill IMO. Roll your eyes at that chief.

On a side note, my bad on mixing up the yellow/red top thing in my earlier post.

I like you snuck your little comment in there. You didn't really have anything to add other than that? Give attitude, get it in return. Who said anything about trunks in the first place, kinda seems like there was mal-intent along with sarcasm from the begining? Maybe it's just me tho.
