Anyone seen a really good price on a red top optima?
which is the proper size code?
I'm running a 92 Chamonix. so it takes two batteries.. would be best to replace both with matching new batteries i would iamgine.. on a budget so wanted to just purchase 1 optima red top for now.
seems one of the original batteries it came to canada with is good under a load test.. and my Delica starts easily. the other is slightly unstable. and will no doubt fail soon.
Thanks..

I think I saw them at Costco... might be worth to check it out. Do a search for Optima on this site and you'll see other vendors with price. Good luck

I got 2 exact size replacements from Lordco for like $95 each so I would just get the 2 it's about the same price.MadB0mb3r wrote:They must have been on sale. I see them for 198 now.

Costco had some for $130. They would physically fit but were only 750 cca or so. I wanted bigger capacity so I went with a costco brand at 1000cca for $80 (meant for a Dodge Cummins truck).
