Where can I buy one? From what I have seen this is one of the best batteries you can buy? I have a 2000 with a electrical issue and I want to install a strong battery.

Most any serious performance auto store will have these. Check that, then if no find let me know I will give you a few online places. Check locally first to avoid paying shipping.

I picked mine up locally, get ready to spend alot more, but so worth the extra cash.

Check out Odessey also. This I would argue is the best battery out there! It is also a dry cell which in my opinion is better!

Get the Red Top. The Yellow Top would be if you ran alot of accessories.

Also add a trickle charger when your car is going to be in the garage for a period of time.

Haven't heard of this one!? How long has it been around and what's the deal about it being a dry cell? Paul.

I take it that you don't like that brand? I thought that they were a good brand?

FYI Fix your electrical issues before you blow your cash on a high priced battery. The battery won't fix it.

BTW....my DuraLast battery is 5 yrs. old and works fine, for less than half the price of an Optima. I don't waste money just because I own a C5. Like Leno says "it's just a chevy....you can fix it with a hammer" :cheers:

Good luck........
