For as long as I could remember, I had always used Sears Die Hard batteries. That is, until a couple of years ago, even their premium (8 year) battery crapped out after only one year. They replaced it, and the replacement only lasted a year.

Since then, I have gone to Batteries Plus (Duracell branded). So far so good -- on my 2 modern cars as well as my Model A.
