Just a bit of info. The 3 big battery makers.

Interstate, Sears Diehard , AutoZones Duralast, Optimas, Fords Motorcrafts, other 'name' brands batteries are made by Johnson Control.

Delphi and Exide are the other 2 major battery makers.

Each make batteries sold under several names.

Dumped 2 factory Interstates and went to 4 Optimas. NO ISSUES.

The best batteries that I have found are the Stinger batteries. They are very expensive but they are also unparralleled. I had a motor cycle size battery in my Ford F-250 and it would start up quick each time. :D:D

Optima Blue Tops, I'm happy with them.
