Used to be able to get a battery for under $100. Now they're double that or more.
if you live in nashville, there's a guy who will sell you a reconditioned battery (1y warranty) for any vehicle out there for $45 cash (no tax).
i have a couple in my vehicles for at least 5 years now; can't tell a bit of difference between this and a new one.
i have used him for all our vehicles; it came in handy when we needed TWO tractor batteries for my son's 24v CUCV. saved a fortune.

i dunno, but i got two big arse "factory" ones for my superduty less than two years ago, and i've got the charger on them now because they suck. the shop gave them to me at "cost" and they were still over $300 total (takes two)
and you "really" paid $100 per battery plus $100 for installation, "regardless" of what they told you you paid for

Just bought a common size battery at O'Reilly's - $129. Same battery was under $100 two years ago.

my truck battery went out recently, went to 3 auto parts stores... all asked my truck make/model, then swear the only battery that would work was the $200+ "platinum, best ever made, fricking super duty" battery recommended for truck.
Finally, just asked for smaller battery, less than half price of "recommended" one.
Been working fine!

Go to Lower Alabama next time.
Everybody knows it's where you go to Bayou LaBatre.
