Thanks Betrivent, i didn't know about crap tire batteries can exolode, the one i bought it was made in Spain not in china but you never know,thanks .
I do like to stick to Optima but even they have moved from US to Mexico...so one can only hope that the quality is still there...BTW watch out when it .comes to wallyworld because i have heard that enything made for walmart no mater what brand or product,wallyworld put so much pressure on manufacturers to make crap as cheap as possible.Anther words buy stuff someplace else and get the full quality behind the name !

I've heard that as well, but have only found that to be true with their shoes. I've heard employees and other customers say not to buy their meat (not an issue since I don't know how to cook). I wouldn't buy their in house baked goods either. However, I did have a set of their tires on my Yaris and they lasted about 11k beyond the 60k rating.
