Jim,
I live where it never gets really warm and I put my car away for the
winter so it never gets either of the extremes. I measure how large of a
space
I have for a battery and how long the cables are and then get the biggest
thing that will fit.
For years I automatically bought Sears Die Hards just because I've had
good luck with them. Over the past few years when Consumer Reports did tests,
two of the best batteries were the ones sold at WalMart (believe it or
not) and ones sold at Costco. They are both less than $90 and there are plenty
of stores around. Consumer reports tested them in both cold and hot
extremes. Apparently the ones for the north have a "N" in the code and a "S"
for the lower states.

Hello,
My battery is getting soggy and needs to be replaced.
I have a Delco Freedom in there now, and a relatively standard
compression
260 (though recently rebuilt).
Is there any "go to" battery out there these days? Anybody more than
averagely pleased with what they have?
Best regards to all, (except Tod Brown)
Jim Armstrong
