Most lead-acid 12v batteries are made by Johnson Controls or Deka IIRC. Not much difference in the battery performance.Only difference is the branding.

Select on correct spec,warranty,price. Lots of anecdotes in Search but it is like oil choice......
If you re in a cold climate a larger CCA # may be an advantage but otherwise minimize the weight with smaller choice from the correct spec range. Get the correct terminal placement !

Thank you!

If you want to spend a few extra bucks go for Interstate

Just my experience with Walmart Everstart Maxx batteries= Bad

BTW a bad battery can cause a lot of issue!
After putting in the new battery fix everything and runs strong now.

I had a ton of errors coming back and my check engine light on.
Some of the codes were Secondary Air Pump

The car would get stuck in 4th gear and sometime the D would blink and not even show my current gear that I was in.... all of this was caused by my bad battery.

I ended up buying the EverStart Maxx Lead Acid Automotive Battery, Group Size H7
I have to drive 12 hours so will let you know if there are any issues.

I had read somewhere (I think Pelican Parts) Everstart work very well and they are rated one of the best battery's, it fits and has a outlet valve on both side so it was easy to install, just drop and connect.

Last year I put (another) Walmart battery (an H8, I believe) in mine - replaced the 4-year old Everstart I had in there previously. No real complaints in usage.
