Duralast from Autozone for all three of mine (and the rest of my cars), have been fine, a bit more expensive than Costco. Johnson Controls makes them, I believe. Interstate batteries are also likely manufactured by Johnson Controls.

Installed the latest Interstate MTX-49 H8 AGM. 900 CCR (OOH, OOH, OOH...very poor imitation of Tim Taylor). The dash lit up "THANK YOU MASTER!" I think I'm gonna be OK now. Thanks to all my fellow Jagnuts for the help. I'm new here but already feel like I've found a new home.
