Hmm.  Well,  the one Subaru we had was a pretty easy-starting car.  And you
can get a 35 with up to 675 CCA,  if you're in a cold climate or want one
for some other reason.

I've seen batteries from there,  and in fact got one for one car we had, 
which they exchanged with no hassles when it wouldn't start the car.  But I
have *no* idea who makes those.

Doesn't seem too likely to be in mine,  either.
