With tax and everything my Duralast was almost $92 bucks. That puts the MB battery at $50 bucks more expensive which is 50% of the cost of another Duralast.
I guess "not all that much more" can be subjective enough.....
They sure do look cool, though!!!

Anybody know how much those batteries are with the MBCA discount??


**edit**
Somehow I missed this post prior to the above:

What is involved in getting "an account", and I'm guessing that is different than the MBCA discount?
