They're all the same and they're all $100.
Lead is through the roof

Just bought 3. And we shopped, only to find that

Better to go to the closest place and save the gas

for what it's worth, Consumer Reports just rated batteries and Diehard is rated best in most battery groups, but several other batteries were recommended including:
Interstate , Everstart, Bosch, Napa, Duralast, Autocraft,
Was in West Virginia 4 yrs ago and my battery died. Got a replacement battery at Auto Zone. No problem with that battery.
