What battery should I get? This was still the original one. Thanks for the input.

Autozone should have one in stock. Just drive over an they'll have it in in 20 minutes.

Car Analogy

I found Walmart to he cheaper, with a better warranty.

Costco used to sell a battery for our cars, but no longer. They do have one with neg and pos reversed, and I understand the cables will stretch to accommodate.

But, believe it or not the Honda dealer might actually be the best place. Decent price, good battery.

Yeah...I've read Honda dealer is actually same or cheaper price O.O ..is this true?

have had this Interstate battery in my 2007 Element, since 2010. Been in very cold and very hot weather. One thing I did do is replace the (+) terminal with a solid terminal. The OEM stamp metal one was starting to disintegrate.

Wow, your old battery sure lasted a long time! My 1st one (2002) lasted about 7/8 yrs, my 2nd (Duralast gold top) has been in the car since,7/8 yrs, and is failing. Today I'm getting another from Honda.

While it was still working, it probably didn't have much longer to go (it tested low while starting) so I just replaced the original Panasonic unit in our 2005 S2000 with a fresh battery from the Honda dealer.

While I doubt that I'll get nearly the years of service out of this new one, the specs seemed pretty good on the battery from the dealership. Only time will tell.

Honda battery is the way to go.

Put a new battery from Honda in yesterday, hopefully I'll be good to 2025 now,

I generally don't buy car batteries from the dealer\, but Honda actually had the cheapest price and they stock them.
