Re: battery question

I went by the interstate store out by the airport. Asked for a group 35 battery. The young guy behind the counter asked what it was for. Told him 49 chevy pickup. He said a group 35 wouldn't work as my truck was 6 volt and the g35 is 12 volt. Showed him the g35 and he still insisted it wouldn't work so I walked out the door and went to Napa. Truck starts and runs great. End of story.

Re: battery question

Lost sale because the young kid who only knows what is in the computer can't get past that.
