Batteries...what's good these days

I have had good luck with duralast.


Actually, I have had good luck with every battery I have bought. Eventually they give out, but that is usually long beyond the warranty period.
 
I need a new battery for the truck.
I see that Advance Auto has Die-Hard Platinum AGM's for $220 for a group 65 batt. when an Odyssey will run $340.
@DAA do you still like the Die-Hard Platinum ?
 
I thought my battery was toast but it’s still hanging on, I was about to pull the trigger on an interstate agm from Costco. Price seemed pretty good, can’t speak for the battery as my cheap ass is just rolling around with my jumper pack until I have time to camp again 😂
 
Okay, so what’s the consensus now days? Batt on the JL went tits up. OEM batt is $367.

Anyone messed with full river? Don’t need anything super special, no gizmos on the JL. Just don’t want to replace it in 14 months.

Full Rivers on RockAuto were priced REALLY well... but I just checked and they're out of stock for now.
I've been curious about them as well.
 
This was brought up on a Jeep forum and I was surprised that about half of them said "Batteries +" had the best battery and a 4 year warranty, I myself went with Walmart because it has a four year warranty also and seemed like a good battery. Here is the "Project Farm" video testing some of them. "Project Farm" does a good job of not playing favorites as he buys everything himself and has no sponsors.

I buy all my batteries at Batteries Plus, AGM or standard. Decent prices, good warranty and good batteries in my experience, so far.
 
I’ve had 4 batteries crap out in two differt cars with in the last few years. Not sure why because both are driven almost daily with freeway time plus parked in a garage. No aftermarket equipment installed. I’ve used the warranty twice at Costco now and they have been good but it sucks they don’t last more than a year.

I stopped using Costco "Interstates". They didn't last a year in my 6.0. I have had really good luck with Autozone Duralast gold. They are reasonably priced and have lasted multiple years in my trailer and the truck.
