We are liking the Sprinter more every time we use it. We played a couple of shows in La Veta, CO. The sprinter carried our equipment, gave us a nice cozy, comfortable place to sleep afterward, took...

We can have some really cold nights here, and I have heard that AGM's don't do as well with cold? I was thinking wet cell, but my mind could be changed, if I'm wrong about that.

I'm researching now. Found a Trojan group 30 that sound awesome, but no dealers in CO. I'm pretty happy with the Interstate batteries in our travel trailer; may go that route. One to start with.
