I got the Interstate battery from Costco. .I heard Interstate is the gold standard for car batteries. It costs just over $100 in my case. Cheers,

I also vouch for Costco Interstate batteries

Just bought 2 interstates from Costco. For the Tacoma and ES300. Will buy one for the CTR in the future.

AGM, fits perfectly, more CCA, about the same weight. Look around for Advance Auto Parts coupons as I paid ~168.

We currently have WalMart MAXX batteries in four of our vehicles.:

'90 TransAm (Stored in Winter): Had decent luck with AC Delco batteries years ago. Not as much with an Optima Red Top. Bought a new MAXX battery in 2014. Free replacement battery in 2015 (original battery cost ~$90). 2-1/2 years later paid $65 for a replacement. 3 years later we got another free replacement battery.

'97 DelSol (Stored in Winter): New MAXX battery 2016. Free replacement MAXX 2 years ago.

'03 WRX (Driven Daily): Replaced original Subaru battery with two Optima Red Tops that lasted a total of 8 years. New MAXX battery 2014. Replaced with another MAXX ($112 after core refund) 6-1/2 years later per battery tester recommendation. Will keep old battery for spare as still some life left in it.

'08 Kia Sorento (Daily Driven): Original Kia battery lasted 7-1/2 years. Replaced with an oversized MAXX battery almost 6 years ago.

'18 Civic Type R (Stored in Winter) : Last time i checked battery life was at 82%. When the time comes i will install a MAXX battery if the required size is available.

Storage seems to be hard on battery life. I do start the stored cars a few times in the winter and use a Battery Tender when needed. Normal local temperatures range from 0 F in winter to 100 F in summer.

I will stick with the WalMart MAXX batteries unless i find something better. Hard to beat their warranty. Costco could be fine but it's 3 miles to the nearest WalMart and 30 miles to the nearest Costco. Also, in less populated areas there are a lot more WalMarts than Costcos.
