I just bought an Autocraft Gold in January from Advanced auto parts for my 01 burban. I've had Optimas in the past in other vehicles, but never had one last more than 2 years at the most. For the extra cost of an Optima, I can't justify it anymore if its gonna crap out in 2 years or so. I just decided to find the biggest (most cranking amps) battery I could find with the best warranty at a reasonable price. I found this 800 CCA one at Advance Auto for just over 100 bucks out the door, with a 48 month free replacement warranty, and a 84 month pro-rated warranty.

Diehard platinum P-4. 880CCA; 4 year free replacement and 100 month prorated warranty. I've gone through 3-4 Optima yellow/ red top batteries. They didn't seem to last me more than 2-3 years before crapping out on me. This was between 2 different vehicles over the past 3 years.
