I’m feeling good because it’s lasted almost exactly six years. It’s some obscure Turkish brand that I got from an iffy place which since closed down. At the time of purchase I thought the sellers were having a lend of me on price ($270 IIRC) but it’s proven decent value over time.
Reminds me of a number of years ago. Walked into a battery place and asked for a battery for a 2012 fg ecoboost. The bloke went out the back and bought out a blank then asked what brand i would like. I said century. Then he went to the roll of stickers and slapped one on. I should have said something oddball...
