Battery OPTIMA or OEM FORD

I put an Optima Red Top in it when my tester showed it below 75% health, about a year ago.

IMO, the Optima Yellow top is your only option. It will last 5-10 Years.

Absolutely not true. I use an Optima battery, works great. Have for a few years now since my 2nd garbage oem battery went out. Or was it the 3rd?

I installed an Optima yellow top in my 2023 OBW. Works fine!

I had the same issue with my MY2024 XL Hybrid constantly going into deep sleep mode. There is a recall for MY2022 and MY2023 Mavericks Hybrids due to a bad 12V battery. I took it to the dealer anyways... After their battery test, mine FAILED and they replaced the 12V with an new AGM battery (free under the OG 3yr/36k mi warranty).

My wrx would be parked for long periods and I had optima yellow tops. I liked how hard it cranked, good for e85 cold starts. But wow, after the second one went flat I stop getting them. Bought some random battery and it\u2019s been holding charge no problem.

Mine did this around 30k miles. The battery was swollen and definitely the problem, but all battery scanners showed that it was good

I bought a red top.. in like 3 weeks it wasn't taking a charge and it got returned. Never again

From my experiance with the optimal batteries you are better off with a Walmart battery and save money. I tried the optimal 2x. Both failed within a year. They were warranties but the replacements didn't last much longer.

Red Tops are sh* and have been for 10+ yrs at this point. \nThe last 3 or 4 I had didn't last 2yrs and I got warranty replacements, which also lasted 2yrs. For $300+ they are sh*.
