Almost all car batteries in the USA are made by Exide. The more you

After working at the auto department of a Montgomery Wards store that sold
Exide batteries, I have never purchased Exide since.

Johnson Controls makes batteries also, and those are a good choice but the
best battery on the market IMHO is the Optima, those suckers are really
tough and tent to last far longer than their warrantee.
