Hi Steve,

Thanks for the conversation. I believe you are correct. I called the dealer, and they did babble something about more accessories standard on the T5.

With respect to RC, from Johnson... "how many minutes the battery can supply *ample* power without falling below the minimum voltage needed to run
your vehicle." There is probably a spec somewhere that dictates what the requirements are for "ample" power, but already I feel I know too much about my battery.

Living in the Pacific Northwest, it gets neither too hot nor too cold, and I usually shut off my radio and blower fan and lights, etc, when I shut the car off. So I am thinking the 590CCA should be sufficient for the moderate temps I live in. Ask me again in a few years...

Thanks again
Joe
