- 2020 CX-5 Signature Azul Metalico
When two years almost to the after I bought my Signature the battery quit with no warning leaving me stranded way out in the boonies and the tow truck arrive four hours later they jumped it with a battery booster pack (story covered in an earlier thread). It was the first time I'd seen one of those and seems to be a marvel of compact convenience. Does anyone here keep one in their car? Following my traumatic experience, especially the part about no warning whatsoever I think I'd like to get one. Would a1000 amp model be adequate? A problem is that while they're quite economical from Amazon etc in the US they are at least four times more expensive here. I would consider buying one on my next trip north but suspect I would not be allowed to bring it on the plane what with it having a live lithium battery. The businesses with our version of Amazon, Mercado Libre probably are aware of that so can get away with adding a gigantic premium to the cost.
