hey thre its time it is that time for a new battery . I have been poking around and looking at batteries and i did not really find a difference in any of them. should i just go with a duralast or more expensive like an optima? i saw that the optima has a higher reserve but wouldnt that only matter when the car is not running? Seems like a waste of money but i could be wrong. so any helpful advice of batteries any of you guys have tired what to get or what not to get would be great
 thanks

optima batteries use a spiral cell design which is a newer design providing higher cold cranking amps and lasts about 2x longer (but also cost about 2x more). i'm using one now for the extra CCA. there was a thread here that mentioned how most of today's batteries are made by the same company, so it doesn't really matter which brand you go with.
