Few years ago had to replace battery in our '89 wagon. Opted to lay out 2 bills (O'Reilys) for an red top Optima. Can't really "brag" about it yet, as it's been only about 4 years. Just hoping the Optima is as rugged/durable/long-lasting as their claims. Battery just before the Optima was a Die-Hard. Lasted about only 6 years. Anyway, I like the "purty red top" on this one. Painted the (recently new) brake calipers (red) to match.
I'll report back on the battery in another 4-5 years. (If it lasts for 20 years I'll be satisfied.**** hell, if I last another 15-20 years I'll be satisfied!)
