catmandew Says: Whatever the Duralast Gold from Autozone in your vehicles Group size is. Probably around 850. Mine started my vehicle after sitting out overnight in -25 F weather last winter, and it's 7 years old! Well worth the $20 more it cost than a cheap one.

Country Boy Says: If you live in Illinois 12 volt car and truck batteries are considered Northern Climate batteries. Auto Zone Sam's Club and Interstate batteries are made by Johnson Controls. More cold cranking amps is better when it comes to batteries. AC-Delco Professional batteries have the longest free replacement warranty period.
