Battery tender FTW. Take it out at the end of the season and keep it on a float charger.

Almost.... Better Solution (http://www.amazon.com/Battery-Tender-021-0123-Junior-Charger/dp/B000CITK8S/ref=sr_1_2?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1360630760&sr=1-2&keywords=battery+charger) is a tender that has plugs that you can hard mount to the battery and then it's simply plug and play:all_coholic:

I simply plug in the charger, pop the hood and plug the connection in under the hood....:dance-1:

FYI - No issues in 3 years vs. replacing the battery every 2 years!! And it even allows it to be easily plugged in during non-winter extended parking (summer vacations):shakin:

I second the Interstate battery, a bit more than the vatozone special, but not as expensive as a red top optima.

yeah I'll probably steal my brothers interstate for now. Had no issues with it since I've had it would start up no problem but it's literally been like 4-5yrs. Got this battery before I got this car. It was in my 94' for a few months and when I swapped over all the good stuff it included the battery. So I definitely got my money's worth on this one.

I have a carquest AGM gell cell in my car and like it. Plus I made sure to get one with dual posts. Got a good deal on it when I worked at the dealership. I think I paid 125.00 for it and it has like 750 or 800 cca.
