Default best replacement battery?

09, C6 Vert. I want to be able to listen to radio and! start the car afterword. The stk one is good the first 2 yrs. And I'm well aware of the way this car likes to kill batteries.

good discussion on this already down the page a bit further. I am running an Oddyssey battery in mine and it will run the radio on Run mode for a long time. I can get you the exact model # of my battery if you want? I cant remember it off hand.

While I know some people hate the Optima Batteries - I've had relatively good luck with them. I'd suggest the Yellow Top if you like to listen t the radio with the engine off.

Interstate. Ive had ACDELCO , optima , and carcraft or something like that , all of them gave me a weak start in the winter and in the summer if i left the radio on for more then a hour with the car off the battery would die. Got a new interstate and its never let me down.
