I just installed a Red Top optima battery. I really like it. Especially now I don't have to deal with the acid residue. I had the oem battery. Lasted 8yrs. Pep Boys sold me the wrong battery type so that was a pain. The postive lead was near the passengerside. Battery is highly recommend. Plus I got a great deal.

 

Thanks for sharing.

My last optima died after a year and they won't honor their warranty. So fuuuuuuuuuuck them.

 

Damn that sucks, Was it the 3 yr warranty battery?

 

I had a optima red top for 5 years in SUV I owned. Sold it with that same battery in it. AGM batteries are definitely superior to a maint free battery.
