Is this even possible? I need a new battery for a car in Cali, and I dont want to be stuck without a driveable car when I get there and take a taxi the next day.

"You won't find a better all-purpose battery for your car or truck!"

Are you sure thats a battery youre supposed to use to actually start a car?

700 cold cranking amps, a full size chevy truck only needs 1000. for a nissan that one should be more than adequate.

One of my old high school friends who now works at Discount Auto Parts (

) is telling me to get a Red Top Optima battery?

What you guys think?
