What have people been using for new batteries in a 300sdl? My choice of stores are O'Reilly, Advance Auto Parts and Autozone. No one sells Bosch anymore.
Any and all input is appreciated.

How did you determine the age of the battery? What did the date code on the side say? A battery with a date code ending in 3 is much more likely to be 2003 than 1993. Normal battery life is 3-4 years, 16 years is unlikely.
