Like Optima. Pricey though

You really have to figure cost per year. I believe an Optima is slightly north of $150 these days. I have had three, and the first went 14 years, the second 13, and the current one is in it's eighth year and going strong. Last summer, after years of nagging doubt, I pulled the starter on my car and found a cold solder joint where one of the brushes connects. A good starter made a world of difference, so I wonder how long they would have lasted if they weren't so heavily taxed during those 23 years.
