I used Uship to find a shipper... All I will say is I am glad I had the truck shipped. Right now there a good storm in Northern California and my truck is just south of the storm. I told the driver he could wait if he didn't want to deal with the passes. More waiting as fast as I can!
I have not had good luck with Optimas at all. The best luck I have had has been blems from Interstate. I have been running them for over 15 years with zero issues. I just changed out a interstate blem in my PK that was 11 years old. No issues starting just changed it because of the age. Not bad...
Not too sure how "cheap" batteries will fry anything. But then again what do I know. I have also read that LMTVs have all sort of electrical issues. I have had zero electrical issues and I have 29.00 each blem group 24s.
Cheap is my middle name... Got my LMTV for winning bid of 3800, the...
Group 31 blems can be harder to find. and are really not needed. Group 24s will start a cold LMTV... Group 24s will start a HMMWV with no issues... I just don't know how will they will fit... and I want to get the batteries here before so I can see if the truck will start when it gets here...

While I'll not give you the price I would stop bidding at... I will say that I set my price and I will not bid over that. That was the 3rd I bidded on that day. The other 2 went higher than my max I wanted to bid. When they are dumping stuff like these I find I get what I want for the price I...
