Duralast experience.
Who here has used a duralast battery in their car? What did you think? What model was it?
I'm sorry for introducing another battery thread, but I haven't seen much on here concerning the duralasts.

No problem here.
I understand taht ther is a company comming out with a dry cell battery for cars that is just great. Operates just like a wet cell and charges the same. Looking for the company name.

I had a Gold Duralast in my daily driver Camaro, and had no issues.
It lasted 5 years before I had to replace it. Good battery

Looks like I'm the only one that had a prob. Bought a Duralast Gold for my truck and it leaked 6 months later, so replaced with Die Hard.

I too have had god success with Duralast. 7 years in my Z-28 and 3 in my C5. Both going strong. I also live in a cold climate.
