Need a xs power d3400 just sayin. Or a yellow top optima since you have extra power use. Deka intimidator is also a good choice.

[MidwestSS]

why an optima yellow over a red?

[Mf2racer]

Yellows stand up to high current draws better. Red is good for starting but not lights,stereos and fuel pumps etc.

Like he said if you are stock or just need to start red is fine otherwise get a yellow top.

optima are junk...they seem to not be able to withstand long periods of downtime. Ive had great luck with AC delco batterys. ive had times were it wasnt started in over a yr and fires right up with good juice

^^^^ Correct, any deep cycle battery (such as Optima) requires continuous use or needs to be on a trickle charge meant for deep cycle batteries.

I myself am not a fan of trickle chargers. One buddy lost a truck and another lost a camp and his Rhino.

Hell, my 04 still has the original AC Delco in it @ 137K on the clock.

Optima's are like Royal Purple. All hype, mediocre product, GREAT advertising.
