Many of my former customers that sold and installed Interstates have switched to ACDelco batteries because the batteries sold by Interstate today that are made in Mexico have a much higher failure rate.

These were died in the wool Interstate guys - they bought ACDelco, Mopar and Motorcraft parts from me - but loved their green batteries.

Until they didn't.

Made in mexico is never a good sign, damn shame because they always held up well in my diesels.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
