Overpriced. But then again, you get what you pay for.
I just bought a new battery for my boat. Got it at BJ's. It's an Exide Battery and has 1000 Marine Cranking Amps. Most of the other batteries I looked at in a LOT of stores had between 750 and 825 Marine Cranking Amps. None had over 900, so this one seems to be pretty good.. and the price was right in my range, $79.99. Not sure how it stacks up against the Optima, but for the price this one seems to be far above the competition. you might want to check it out. If you're interested I'll get you the model number tonight when I come home from work.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
