On the  east coast (of Canada), it appears that COSTCO no longer carries the
Group 41  battery. On visits to 2 Costcos recently (Halifax and St. John's) I
could not  find that particular battery. Costco typically referred to it as
"Fitment Size  12". The label for that size was still shown on their
rack/display, but the  Kirkland Book hanging on a chain no longer lists it. Perhaps the
lack of  Vanagons out this way prompted some sort of local discontinuation   :)

Well, that's not good news  !
