    I just replaced mine with Interstate 950 CCA @ $97.50 each. The Interstates I just replaced were 5-6 years old.

    I replaced mine with 2 8Ds from Batteries Plus. $144.50 each installed with an 18 month warranty. 1400 CCA

    They are 2 years old and still going strong. They really spin that series 60!

    Dale, Just wondering. Have you been using a Battery Tender on those Interstates to get 5-6 years of service out of them ?

    I have found that most chargers that converters have installed actually cook the batteries over years of charging,I do have a charger on mine but I seldom use it.

    Jim, The batteries were in the bus when I bought it 4 years ago, and I added the 24V Deltran battery tender in March 2008. I have always left the tender on. I don't know if it helped or hurt, but I never had a problem until January. One of the batteries exploded right after I started the bus to do my monthly run of all systems. I checked the other batteries, and they were still good, but I changed them all.
