I am going to go get the motorcraft one. The stock jag battery says its 650CCA.

The specs on the motorcraft is:
part# CCA CA
BXL-49 750 935

The Cost is MSRP $64.95 with a 84-month (7-year) unlimited mileage, limited "pro rated",
18-month FREE replacement Warranty.

I will let ya know when i get it how it does.

I've got 2 of these in my diesel truck.

Right back at ya, mate. The main thing is that you didn't have to retreat to Fort Jaguar to get sorted out.

A new lesson learnedevery day makes it a good day for me. This one will end with me snow plowing the driveway...time to fire up the tractor.

I'm sure it will work and also save you space and weight.

The battery that's in my XK8 was made in Spain so says the sticker that's on it. It's the largest battery I've ever seen in a car. It weights about 60 lbs. I was wondering why the battery is so big. I've stood beside the car when my wife started it up and also when she shut it down and there's a lot of electrical clicks that go on.

Does a bigger battery have more load capacity so it can run more electronics than a smaller battery with about the same amp power?

Yes and no. Depends on the battery.

Ok, the motorcraft battery i stated below is no longer made.

That's almost the cost of that 1000 amp Interstate battery that's the size of a suit case (the one that came with the Jag) and weights about 40 or so pounds.
