What is the white, crusty substance accumulating on my D150’s battery post?

If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your D150, it's likely corrosion.

What do I do about corrosion on my D150 car battery?

To help extend the life of your battery, you should routinely inspect and clean the terminals using a baking soda and water mix, wire brush, and rag. Be sure to disconnect the battery cables before cleaning and check your D150 owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
