|    Re: Battery replacement time of the year    |

      RW> I tried that, but couldn't find a battery that fit the space HD made for       RW> the battery. That was in 08 or 09 and had to go back to the HD dealer to       RW> get an overpriced pos from them. When it failed again in less than a       RW> year,       RW> I just let it sit until I can find one that is priced right and will fit       RW> the space that it needs to go into.              Next time I remove the seat from the HD, I'll try and remember to take a look       at the brand name of the replacement battery. I know it isn't a HD battery.              RW> OTH, my garage houses the 56 and the Camaro, along with the washer and       RW> dryer with my work space in front of the 56/Camaro, which includes a CNC       RW> verticle mill, my machine shop roll-away and tool box, with another one       RW> along side of it for tools that used to be in my machine shop rollaway.       RW>        RW> And then there is the spare hood for the 56 sitting under some new but       RW> yet       RW> to be fully used, shelving, along with my roll away containing automotive       RW> tools. And the HD sits behind the 56, allowing the door to be closed       RW> behind it. My only complaint is that the Camaro had to sit outside from       RW> Jan to Jun so that I could tear down the wall that used to seperate my       RW> work area from car space, so that I could move the mill all the way to       RW> the       RW> back of the garage. I thought I may have expand the garage to fit       RW> everything in, but put a lot of stuff in a storage shed behind the       RW> garage.              Do you have AC in your garage? I'm sure it can get hot in there in Texas if       you don't. The only thing I have in our garage is a space heater for those       "emergency repairs" in the middle of the winter.              RW> That's where a pickup or an SUV comes in handy. I fill the PU bed with       RW> groceries, back up to the garage door and unload it under the overhang,       RW> rain or shine. That's the shortest path to the kitchen anyway.              Eventually we will be able to use the garage to park at least one of the cars.       We need to build a shed under our deck to house some of the lawn/garden/toys       and stuff.               The other issue is the fridge, which you can't open with a large vehicle in       that space. That will move to the basement eventually.              - Mark              --- WWIVToss v.1.50         * Origin: http://www.weather-station.org * Bel Air, MD -USA (1:261/1304.0)    |
