Default Battery Recommendations?

Its about time for a new battery. My current battery wont crank over with the radio on for 10 minutes! I have been putting this off for months. Today I ran out of gas and put some new gas in it but after a few seconds of cranking the battery died lol. Luckily I was at home. What are some good batteries? Try not to mention Duralast... 02 MCss

I just did a quick search and it looks like you have a Blain's Farm & Fleet near you, I have my battery from there, and it's the best battery you can get for the price

AC Delco is the way to go, just a seriously sound long lasting battery.
