I like Interstate myself. You can also go with Optima but it will be more expensive.

Optima is good. The company I work for makes the Odyssey battery. Both are 'pure lead' batteries that have higher AH ratings and higher amperage output capabilities. They can't blow up, can be used on their sides, and won't crap out suddenly like regular liquid/gel cells can, won't leak, and have a far superior resistance to vibration and shock. Here's a link to explain this type of battery:

Odyssey FAQ

Either of which (I believe) are rated safe enough to have in your passenger compartment according to DOT, so you can buy a bigger battery than would fit under the hood and keep it in the back wheel well.

personally I like the Optima. It reminds me of drinkin.
