2019 SV CC 4L. I'm entering my 4th winter on the stock battery and my truck is parked outside overnight in the Minnesota winter (sub. Minneapolis) about half the time. My truck is my only winter vehicle and I want to replace the battery at 30,000 miles as preventative maintenance. And to gain CCAs.
I've decided to also move from the OEM Group 35 to a Group 24 (24, maybe 24F if the 1-11/16" longer 24F drops right in). I am not interested in modifying the truck for even larger batteries.
I am not a member of the big box stores (Costco, etc.), and have no plan to shop any of them.
I'm looking for the good reputation/reliability battery brands and models to install. And for that matter, which brands to stay away from. I've searched previous threads but some are so old that battery brand reputation may have changed. Thanks for your thoughts.
