    I ultimately went to NAPA and bought their 6TL batteries. They were fresh manufacture, exceed the minimum specs the HMMWV calls for in the parts manual, and you know that they're going to survive all the conditions that the HMMWV -10 says it can handle. I specifically needed the reserve...

    I was literally just spending yesterday afternoon looking into battery replacements. If I can't get a secondhand 6TAGM from one of the local salvage yards, I'm very likely to switch to a more common battery, despite wanting to actually run lots of electronics on my HMMWV... I was going to...
