Recommended Posts

i don't know if i should buy the optima yellow top battery or 2 bosch batteries. I'm not really made of Money my girl and 9month old make sure of that. any advice is greatly appreciated.

or should i just get the yellow top and wait till i get my money up and get another one?that wont be till tax time so I'm not sure if the batteries will be to far apart in age. iknow they can pull off eachother

Don't cheap out. You have almost enough for a good XS D series - for what you have you don;t need a D31 maybe a D3400 and get another later

1 great battery now

Another great battery later.

i would personally get a XS Power D3400 brand new on that budget. if you really have to maybe 2 C&D group 31s might fit that budget too, but performance of xs power will be better if you were to add more down the line when you save up.

Yea XS is by far the best, you pay what you get for. Personally I don't have any connections with XS so I'll prob just buy an XS for my upfront then wholesale/reconditions AGM group 31 batteries since I need so many.

wow, somewhere someone told me they were like 100 a piece. nevermind about c +D. but still 250 for a group 31 that is know to be ok is not bad.

my reccommendation is still to get the xs power
