Scott,
Thanks for a great reference.  These guys are located just south of the
former McClellan AFB in Sacramento.  I bought a battery for a pickup truck
from them about 15 years ago, but I had no idea they had grown into a major
web retailer!  I drive right by their warehouse several times a week, so I
now know where to shop for my next battery.  They have a good selection of
sealed lead-acid batteries, so I'm sure to find just what I need for my XL!
