Costco Kirkland car batteries? 700

Anyone using these in your cars? they got a good warranty and I'm thinking of replacing with a Kirkland since my current AC Delco battery is about 7 yrs old now.

Costco Kirkland car batteries? 700

Last year consumer reports did a review of some battery types and the kirkland was rated a best buy. I'm planning on getting one next time I need a battery.

Costco Kirkland car batteries? 700

There are about 3 major manufacturers of batteries in the US/Mexico nowadays - Johnson Control, Exide, and AC Delco. Chances are it's made by one of those, and you'll be fine with 'em.

Douglas is a minor one - better constructed than the major three, but more expensive too. They make the OEM Volvo (and last I've seen, BMW too) batteries.
