I get the 48 ..
I believe that's a diesel vanagon battery with 600 CCA's ..

lol - -  walmart..I bought a battery from them once.
When I came back the next day with my core they were totally confused.
there's a giant new WM where I am.
I may never go on their lot the rest of my entire life.

the 48's I'mgettingare about $ 79 with no sales tax,
and outright replacement for a year.  I keep about 9 personal cars running..
they'll all take that battery except one mercedes coupe.
