If you compare your 10 year old autozone battery to a new autozone battery you'll find that the new one will be much lighter. Last time I picked up an autozone group 49 battery, I was surprised how light it was. Needless to say I did not buy one.

Does Optima make a battery that fit the 123 diesels?
