I agree with JB on that. And the AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) type batteries won't freeze and bust and even if busted from impact they don' leak. Gas-off isn't as much of a problem and they can be mounted in any position. Did I mention they do not leak? And they last longer, even when abused when charged. Can't be "overcharged" and don't lose a charge as quickly as other type batteries. Cabella's also sells a good one....delivered to your doorstep with no "core charge" or state imposed "disposal fees". Just another brand name for AGM batteries. They don't seem to have the terminal electrolysis that you see on wet cells. They are generally just "cleaner" batteries. And etc...etc...
