What do you all think the best battery is? (and by best I mean good, and for a decent price)
 
well ill probably get laughed out of the org but i always used those everstart batterys from walmart. there cheap and last a while. sure id like a optima but i could use a 100.00 bucks or so else where. so my opinion is there good at a decent price
 
I agree i use everstart also.  I just picked up two of them from the junkyard for $10, one of them was only 2 months old.  batteries usually always have the date printed on the top or the sales receipt still with them, so i like to buy them from the junkyard.  Its easy to find good ones and they are cheeeeep.
 
 
lol! Yeah, I know optimas are supposed to be great and all, but you're right, I could put 100 dollars torwards something else. What about interstate or duralast?
 
Yellow Top optima... i had a red top and it was great. and i had a yellow top for a while and it never droped below 12 volts when i was just running the stereo.
...
 
 
Well where could I get the cheapest one???
 
junk yard. I got an almost new optima for $20
 
really? (heads off to find junk yard optima)
"I live my life a quarter mile at a time..." "for those ten seconds or less I'm free"
 
optima here as well, a red top. i needed a good starting battery and after i killed a good battery in 1 year i thought i should just buck up and get a good battery.
 
 
Sounds good to me. I live only a mile or two from a pretty big junkyard, I'll go down there and check for one. If I can't get one from there, I'll most likely get one from Summit.
