Battery question.

[bdblk12v]

Hello guys. I have been searching and searching on here for a battery. I know there are alot of reviews and do not know what to go with. I have seen that the general consensus is an autozone battery. I live in a very remote part of new mexico and we do have an autozone they have both batterys in stock. I really wanted to know what the deal is with an optima battery. I have a 94 cummins with red tops in it and have had them in it for over 6 years with no problems. I dont mind spending the money but if they arent as good i wont bother. The car i have is a 1982 300td wagon. Thanks for the replies. I appreciate it. I just purchased new tires for the wagon and a battery is next on the list.
