    I live out near Palm Springs and gets 120+ in the summer. We usually get 2 yrs at the most out here for battery life. I guess its a trade off for dry climate/no rusting frames

    Actually I’ve had the displeasure of owning a vehicle that was completely fluid filmed. I remember it being a greasy nightmare to work on anything. I’d rather buy the batteries

    I dont like that F F stuff either, ended up spraying mine down with Body Cavity Wax as it dries to the touch and doesn't smell like a chemical factory.
