I've had good luck with champion batteries or John Deere strong box batteries
That'd be cheaper than everywhere I've looked so far..plus I've already got one somewhere.

You could steal them out of your TV remote.

I just buy the cheapest battery I can get that fits in the tray with the highest CCA i can get (except in my puller). I have to say I have really good luck with it.

I used to put the local farm and barn batteries in my tractors, but got real pissed after they seemed to start crappin in a year!! then I switched to "ironsides"cost more but almost 400 cca, and have one going on its 6th year!! As for the truck, i store mine in winter (i know what a loser, but its old and i spent lots of hours on it in my defense) so i just do the exact same as what Don said above...the old lady's van has a napa battery going on its 8th year in it...Id probably stick with the delco if i was in your shoes...sounds like its been good to you...

Bought a Delco from a GM dealer today, just over 110 dollars. Highest CCA (700) that they had available. It is only rated for 48 months. I told the guy the last one was rated for 6 years and he told me that GM changed their battery warranty a few years ago. After I got it installed it started up (the truck) great.

Thanks for all the tips. If my 97 truck lasts another 48 months I'll be doing great.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
