did it today

I signed up with Napa and they sent me 10% off coupon and we got the Napa 7535 battery. Around $109 with tax. Good stats, fits perfect. Also if it is good enough for CTScott, it is good enough for me. We did not want to wait for the old one to fail. It was starting to swell as old batteries do and it was 6 years old.
BTW, what do you guys think about battery protectors (felt washers) and synthetic Dielectric grease placed on the terminals after hookup?

I always grease the terminals. Have been for years on both my daily drivers and work cars. Being in Canada its always good to get some grease on there in the event they get rusted or corroded. I've never had an issue with DE grease on the terminals.

Yep.

I wish the 10% off coupon had been around when I got mine.
