If it is going under the hood, Red Top, not Yellow.

To be honest with you I'd go with an everstart maxx rather than a gell cell battery under the hood. It'll work just as well if not better.

Yea, half price, same performance (except not gell cell).

Honestly for under the hood any good battery with a fair amount of CCA will work perfectly.

The Maxxx start batteries from Walmart seem to be a decent buy. They run from $58-$79... I think they are 5 year warranty...

What's a good CCA rating? I now have 4G all around, and it still drops, so I will look at wal-mart and price them. I get a discount at auto zone so I'll look there too. If that batt's not at the zone whats a good CCA to look for?

900+CCA at 0 degrees :)

Just got the maxx installed, the volt reading in the truck still drops? It was 1000cca at 32 degrees hows that kiki? As long as it stays over 12v i'll be fine right?
