Vette(s): 82 Collector Edition (*sold 12/2006)
Just my opinion here, and I'm NOT saying anything bad about Delco, but I've have great luck with the Sears DieHard Silver that's in my ride right now. No problems at all after being in the shop for 4 months. Alot of my club members have also been running these with no problems also. Just my opinion....

Vette(s): 1979, 350sb, as my kids affectionately call it "shit brown" Corvette purchased in 1996. 84,000+ miles. Not a show car, but I love her just the same.
I have to throw my hat in with Darla, as well. Delco batteries basically suck! If you have the chance, it's better to purchase something that's going to work rather than just something that was stock when GM sold it. For the extra $$ Optima batteries are great, but if you want to stay within a budget there are better, comparatively priced batteries out on the market that put Delco to shame.

Think about it...do you want you battery manufacturer to be the same one that made your radio? Just don't oversize it!
