A battery is a battery, they're all the same. I've never had one fail within 5 years and I've never had one last more than 10. Brand makes no difference whatsoever.
I mostly agree here. I have a chevy that eats batteries every three years like clockwork. Shit poor placement in a tight engine bay. I think the damn things just get cooked in there. Doesn't matter the brand or the money I spend on the battery.
So yeah, a car battery is a car battery.
