What battery to use in my daily driver recommendations
Same as ProStockTom and ToolManMike.
I buy from the Big W because they're all over and they're open most of the day.
I used to buy from Sears for the same reason.
I haven't had any problems with WalMart batteries, the prices are from good to okay, and they tend to have whatever size I need in stock.
I did have one go bad a couple of weeks ago - "Someone" left the driver's door of the Subaru unlatched, and the dome light killed the battery, and it wouldn't recharge.
I checked, and it was 2 years and 11 months old, and had the 3 year full replacement warranty. Took it down to WM, guys said, "Sorry, I've got to test it first," he took it back, came back a few minutes later, said "Yup, it's dead," and gave me a new one, now with a 90 day warranty (which makes the original 3 year warranty a 3 year and 2 month warranty). No fuss, no problems.
