I just started drinking water, and walking for 1 hour every morning, and ive shaved off 60lbs so far, and it was free. LOL

LOL  I've been walking daily too!  Limit to 2000 calories a day.  Probably knock a tenth or two off my time by Spring!

I was actually just thinking about this last night. I've been looking at fabricating my own intake and after looking at it I was wondering if I could install a red top at a different angle or even in the trunk to allow much more room for the intake.

Yes, I know it's not what the op was about specifically but its about the huge stock battery and getting rid of it, same idea I was having, and another benefit was that a bigger intake system will fit

Optima Red Top battery :D
I've considered the Optima battery, but you can get a solid performing battery for a lot less money.  I was going to get an Optima for my F-150, but Sam's Club offered (sorry, can't remember the brand, but it was a brand that I trusted) for $63.00 vs $179.00 for the Optima, and if I remember correctly the battery I ended up getting had like 950CCA and 48 month warranty....

I work at Costco and occasionally we get red tops in for $119. That or if you look long enough you can find one on Amazon for around $100.  Agreed $179 is a little too much
