The November Consumer Report mag had a rather extensive battery test and results with recommendations. I was wanting the Sears Platinum but the $219 price tag was a bit too steep even with the 4 year replacement warranty. The Sears Gold scored very well. I ended up with a NAPA battery from the local NAPA guy (3 miles away). BTW, K Mart carries Die Hard batteries as they are owned by Sears (or vice versa) Also, I do believe Sears has a battery sale going on right now. Good luck

I went to 2 different places today and the Interstate place had a yellow top Optima and it said made by Johnsons Control or something with a 3 yr replacement warranty. The next place yellow top 1 yr replacement made by Optima? What gives?? Does this make sense.
