Batteries -- Starting & Deep Cycle

[Jose]

Give me your input on what batteries you trust when your miles away from the ramp on cold winter's afternoon and you hit the key to return home. Do you prefer sealed or water filled and is there a particular brand you truct most?

You'll get more opinions than if you ask if Ford, Chevy or Dodge is the best truck. I buy Walmart (good warranty) but if I were miles from anywhere I would want one of the new Optima batteries, followed by Delco, Interstate, etc.
