As noted in above post, there are many brands, and their availability will
vary by your location...fwiw, I'm not a huge fan of Optima, but choose
what you like. Also, a ~$50 Battery Tender, connected under your hood
when you car is sitting, should keep your new battery up to full charge
regardless of temps.

Hope this info helps...this board has a good answer(s) or, at the least,
very good opins and info on nearly any topic under the sun. Search Tab
is your friend.
