<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body dir="auto"><div>My brother used to be the plant engineer at a battery plant in North Carolina. Most of the car batteries in the us are manufactured at just two plants. One east of the Mississippi and one west. The one in NC makes die hard, interstate, autozone and about 20 other brands. They use the same acid and lead and slap a different plastic cover on them depending on the brand. Short story is batteries are batteries. You pay more for some due to brand, like die hard, interstate etc. I always look for best price and warranty regardless of brand. They are all made in the same place.</div><div id="AppleMailSignature">Jim Henningsen</div><div id="AppleMailSignature">Ocala FL</div><div id="AppleMailSignature"><br>Sent from my iPad</div><div><br>On Jan 17, 2016, at 1:43 PM, Kinderlehrer <<a href="mailto:kinderlehrer@comcast.net">kinderlehrer@comcast.net</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 12 (filtered medium)"><style><!--
