Not riled up just still mad that i had to leave my car on the side of the road with the windows down, and walk a couple of miles home to get the minivan and then the windows would not even go up with the jumper cables.

and then the only battery the auto supply had to fit my car had been dropped and was tested bad.

it was a terrible night getting home from work.

Is your car a Turbo? on my old 244 turbo it had a much bigger battery than a non turbo 240. It also had a much more powerfull Alternator than non turbo cars. this could explain the difference in our battery sizes.

Do you think i may have a underlying problem like a bad ground? maybe i should check that out.

thanks for the feedback
