Honda Fit battery life
 
Just bought a new battery for my 300sd today. What a brick! But the cranking amps are really impressive considering the glow plug draw and then cranking over these engines after that. My charger has a jump feature and it cant get past the glow stage :eek:

Well, of course I agree......... It's hard to know where to start. To me, what is scary is looking at a Smart car in person standing near it - it's just not anything that resembles a car - not even a tiny car, IMO.;) It has a very abysmal record of assorted disasters for a car that was supposed to be so Smart. I did a Google on it a few weeks ago, and came up with story after story of doom and gloom on it. I'll stay with my MB's humongous battery, FWIW. :D
