I think I may go with the Deka 9AGM49. I found it relatively locally for $159.99 and it gives me 900 CCA (+ 260 cca over stock) and 180 Min RC (+ 40 min over stock), and I like the idea of the AGM design over the flooded cell. I can't seem to find the Exide Global Extreme battery you referenced on line or locally..

Edit: Well, the OEM battery gave up the ghost on my wife the other day, so I didn't have time to get the Deka AGM as planned, instead I ran up the road to the trusty Interstate Distributor and pick-up up a MTP-49/H8 ($141.95 + tax) and threw it in. So at least it was still an upgrade over the stock battery (+ 60 cca and + 36 min over the stock 3.0 battery), even if it wasn't what I planned..
