I live in Calgary where we have fluctuating temperatures in winter ranging from -40 to +18 celcius(Thanks greatly to the Chinook Winds). I always have my rig parked outside, my wife uses the garage and the rest of my stuff is on the other side of her car, hence no room for the H2! I looked into the Optima battery but found that it only provides you with a two year warranty and costs roughly $300.00+ and comes with a heavy duty 800 Cold Crank Amp kick over. Since this is the recommended standard for starting th H2 it is fine, but not for us up here...I obtained a Battery from a company up here with 1200 Cold Crank Amp kick over along with a 5year warranty for $98.00! It does not matter how cold it gets the truck starts every time. As for noises, the belt sometimes squeels a bit but thats about it!
WINTER ROCKS IN CANADA!!
