    Where to buy a new battery and which one?

    Looking to buy a new battery for my 95 GT I'm looking for something good quality that won't break the bank. Where shouldn't look and which brands do you recommend?

    Bought a new Kirkland Battery(made by Johnson Control) from Costco today, found out their Group 34 Fitment Code 4 (795 CCA and 995 CA @32 degrees) will fit in my Fox.
    For my OCD, I peeled off the Kirkland sticker from the top and re applied to the side...$119 with a great Warranty

    Anything made by Johnson Controls. Take your pick.

    I've been getting Insterstates lately. Local garage here carries them.

    FYI, Johnson controls make the Kirkland, Interstate, Motorcraft, and a bunch more.

    I have an Optima red top in the Cobra.
    I did not buy it so I cant tell you how old it is but I can say this.
    In Dec 2009 we bought the car after it was burnt up in a fire. 4 years later we had the car on the road battery had been charged and stored.
    4 years later still same battery. It stays in the car with kill switch off and on a tender.
    I suspect when I get the car out this year 9 years after the fire it will fire right up.
    I think that says somthing.
    Still has a melted handle.
