    I did order the one in my link today so will let you know once I get it Tuesday. Thinking I can use it for the lawn tractor as well, so fingers crossed.

    For her pleasure?



    Never heard of those batteries, but anything American made is better. If they are guys, than that's even better.

    Apparently that's true. Ag batteries need more deep cycle ability, especially if you're running a lot of electrical equipment.

    I've been pondering a purchase myself. Let us know what you think. I'd like to use it on my generator battery now and again and also on my Tacoma.

    I looked at the receipt I got and the price for the battery was $322. Another hundred for install and taxes. The dealer charges $155 per hour. :makeitrain":makeitrain"

    My mom's battery in her 2013 3.5 liter Edge just needed replacement. It was the original Ford battery. I almost didn't believe it.

    Crazy that OEM batts are the best ones, but the proof is in the pudding!

    I just bought an Odyssey Performance AGM for my wife's car. I've seen some source say this battery is made by East Penn and others sources say it's made by Enersys. Does anyone know who makes Odyssey?

    They may be the best but if a car that's only a few years old with the OEM battery in it has been sitting on a dealer lot for a year or more and the only time they start the car is to move it from one side of the lot to the other then the battery is probably junk..............just happened to my wife and I.
