I actually use a costco battery, better cranking amps than any thing else I found that costs like 80 bucks and mine cost 54 bucks or something. A lot more cold cranking amps than stock battery and pretty good so far. Bosch is pretty good, but optima is the very best, exspensive and what race cars use. Usually around 150 in price, won't leak, last twice as long as a good battery, ton more output.

I have an Energizer battery from Pep Boys. Thing is powerful compared to the others I've seen. Loads of cranking amps and cold cranking amps. Been in my car for over a year and a half and still cranks strong. If there's a Pep Boys, I'd get one of their Energizer batteries. Really worth it. Only $60 at most, if I remember correctly.

Ya, I was going withe the energizer because I though my old battery(costco one was crap) so i bought the energizer and it didn't have as much cold cranking amps, etc as the costco one(kirkland). So I got the kirkland for freee cause it was under warranty. Found out my alt was bad.

The Energizer battery sounds like a good battery but I like the look of the Optima Red Top. Does any one know if they sell them at crappytire? and thanks for the help

Wal-Mart Battery in the 7. Interstate Deep Cycle in my boats, Wal-Mart on my jet skis. Some junkyard battery, that says "Used Battery" on it for the Pinto. Optima Red & 18 wheeler jumper cables in case any of those gives me trouble.
I seem to have a thing for used batterys. I cant remember the last time I bought a battery for something. Just Put some fresh acid in them, slow charge them back to health. OOhh yeah. Heck, I even got the Optima for free lol
