You're not stating any facts in your posts - just that you and your son are happy with them. That's great! That's all anyone else is doing - giving opinions based on experience.

The only true facts is the tests in the link I attached (which I'm sure didn't read since you have nothing new to learn). The optima was only 10-20% behind in most of this tests and pretty close in the CCA which surprised me. Not that bad actually - but your consistent push to whatever selections you've made (bumpers, tires, suspension, headlights, etc) gets annoying. State your opinion and move on -quit trying to argue everyone else's opinion.
“I'm sure they were trying to sell to you”
They suggested I buy and take it directly from the importer, so it’ll be cheaper. They are friends.
But, you’re “sure”...

“I'm sure didn't read”
I read it.
But, you’re “sure” again...

“You're not stating any facts in your posts”
You’ve seen, for instance, the cross-section which shows the AGM inside the Optima.
But, facts have no influence on whatever you like to say...

“your consistent push to whatever selections you've made”
Before every mod, I search, study in depth and compare.
e.g.: when my shocks list narrowed down to Fox and King, I studied & compared the internal structure and materials of both, before I bought the Fox shocks.
When I share the knowledge plus two years of experience, you interpret it as “pushing”...
Between the two of us, it’s not me who ignores facts, then arrogantly pretends to know what's on ones' mind.

“State your opinion and move on”
On top of the way-off guesses, there are orders too...
Find someone else for that.

...Not to mention that your post, instead of relating to the issue, is nothing but an ugly personal attack. That's not the spirit of this forum.

Here did the work for you. https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/stoc...-start-320585/
There are such things about every battery, try Google...

I once was about to drive someones' pretty expensive fast Audi. The battery wouldn't start. Nothing else was faulty, just the one year old expensive German battery.

I appreciate the the first half, really!

Less so regarding the second half... Prove me wrong about one point I made... -- Not seriously, I was just kidding.
I'm off the topic itself, and reply only the not very smart personal attack.

The post just before yours, said: "I'm off the topic itself, and reply only the not very smart personal attack"...
I didn't realize that it was so complicated to understand.
I suggest you stop contaminating this forum with personal attacks.

Exactly! It's same thing on every single thread the he's in but he doesn't get it. He's obviously smart and knows things - but he lacks tact.
It's alright - different strokes for different folks. He's obviously very sensitive and somewhat insecure from the looks of it. He can't handle people having a different opinion or not agreeing with him.

It's you who is bursting with personal attacks, not I... so who is sensitive and lacks tact? LOL...

It's just Jeeps & batteries, so I suggest you calm down, adopt a more proportionate attitude, and stop contaminating the forum with personal attacks.
