Hey everyone!

Had a crap load of stuff to do and catch up on the past few days. I had so much stuff build up over the holidays. Spent the last couple days doing stuff that needed to be done.

Took down all the Christmas stuff and stored it away in boxes in the attic. A whole day of hauling boxes down and up the stairs. Then had all the bills to pay (ugh!). Plus a whole other bunch of shopping and stuff that needed to be done.

One thing I had to do was get a new battery for the Monte. I looked at the Optima website, but it keeps telling me the red top is what belongs in the Monte. I was wondering which Yellow Top people are putting into their 6th gen Montes?

I went with a beefier AC Delco battery. I ordered the 800cca AC Delco for cheaper than I can get the Optima Red Top. Dealership didn't have it in stock, so they odered it. Pick it up tomorrow.

My yellow top is in my trunk:

But I THINK it's the same size as stock. NOT cheap tho. Got mine at Auto Zone.

Looks familiar! My fiance had an 05 Saleen (non supercharged) but sold it a couple of years later.
