Optima batteries

[DallasTahoe]

Got a question, i want to buy an Optima battery for my Hoe, I want to make sure i get the right one, I notice most people get the Yellow top, but is there really a big difference between Yellow, Red and the Blue tops?? I have a stock alternator, small system in my Hoe (less than a 1000 watts), foglights in the front, and foglights in the rear, I dont use the foglights much, but i do listen to my stereo...
Any input??

Just my .02 cents but I've had bad luck with optima I've had 2 go out under warranty and finally took my losses and invested in another battery IMO was worth the tow truck call for the 3rd time

optima is junk, they don't make them like they use to.

x2 on stray away from optima. really sad how their product has gone to shit. look around on google and you can find something that will work out much better

interstate makes a good battery. But anything better than Optima. Had one in my 3000gt once and it internally shorted and melted from the inside out. What a mess it made.
