For those who can't see Dave's bmp file, the image is below.
The PC680 is fine for sixes as well. Like I said: If your car is hard to start and you have extra stuff (stereo, big lighting, etc.) drawing current faster than your alternator can keep up with, then you may need a larger battery. Although at that point you should also be looking at an alternator upgrade too.... Otherwise the 680 is fine. Attached image(s)
