I didn't have good luck with the yellow top Optimas in my Excursion, although it sits all week long and doesn't get started until the weekends I would still think a set of over priced batteries would start my truck.....?
No they didn't so I took them back to Costco for a full refund and bought the Costco brand and haven't had one problem with them and it's been over a year. The Optimas started acting up after about 3-4 months, I think they like to be charged by the alternator and don't like to just sit there under a hood?
I have also heard good things about the Autozone batteries.
Yea for all my construction equip on the yard when it gets a bad battery i call battery usa they have some really good long lasting batteries.
Ill have a peiece on the yard for months and go out there to start and that battery will fire it right up no problem

Had the original stock Ford battery in my 96 F250. In 06 when I bought my next truck it had a bad batt, so I swapped em and that same batt was good until I sold it a year ago it was over 12 years old. That is the best battery i have ever had or even heard of.
