My question is....

Buy stock battery for $112 at dealer
or go to local Advance Auto and by this guy for $172
Buy Optima Batteries RedTop Starting Battery, Group Size 35, 720 CCA 35 at Advance Auto Parts
i hear optima's quality went downhill since moving production to mexico. this is hearsay, so dont know for sure.

per mr.gale's recommendation, i would get a duralast/ever start from your local auto parts store or walmart. i believe either can take your old battery for a discount on your new one.

sounds good, float is wat the battery needs. adding distilled water also helps.
