I use an Optima "red top". Its one of the best.

I have an Optima Yellow Top in my car.

I've heard good things about Odyssey brand batteries. If my Optima ever dies, I'll try one of those next.

The most reasonably priced battery that I have found for the Lincoln Mark VIII is sold at Wal-Mart and is yellow and black. Sorry, but I can't recall the name off the top of my head.

Yeah thats the one I got, it was for $79.00. I think the name is everstart or something like that. I when to pakistan this past month, so the car sat there for a month. It wouldn't start so I had to get some kind of battary.

I got one for my Mark VIII for $50 at the Autozone, but then I got myself an Optima Blue Top.

oh never mind it was for $62.(I wasn't there when they bought it)and does it really matter what kind of battary I buy since i live in Florida and there is no problem of cold weather here?

Cold weather or not that battery should keep you smiling.

Sears Die Hard or Interstate

 

[UltimateSVT]

Optima is the way to go, otherwise same answer as above. Die Hard or Interstate! I have a Die Hard in my Mark VIII. I have a cheaper battery from Advanced Auto that so far has been great but their warranty requires you to keep the receipt & the ink on their receipts "conveniently" disappear within the first 12 months leaving you with a blank strip of paper.

 

[LSC HUNTER]

That is why I photo copy all receipts that are for anything to do with a warranty.

I bought a Sears Platinum 930 CCA, AGM about 3 years ago and it still tests over 1200+ CCA a day after being charged in most temps. It was expensive, I think around $220, but you really need a good battery and alternator for these power-hungry whores. Mine sits a lot, so I periodically charge it @ 2 amps. I have a 1500 watt sub, so I am trying to make myself deaf.

I took a photocopy once to Advanced Auto Parts & the guy told me it's not valid. Said if they allowed that, then all the clients could clone one reciept & it would be major chaos. I told him about the disappearing ink issue & he smiled. Said there's nothing he could do. BASTARDS!
