Battery Brands

[Ceecpa@gnn.com (Charles Edwards)]

Any advantage to buying a DieHard or an expensive Exide as opposed 
to buying a Pep Boys battery of the same cold cranking amps, with 
similar warranty periods?  I have heard that there are only 4 
battery manufacturers in all of the United States, that battery 
technology is well-known and utilized.  Accordingly, should one 
spend a lot or a little?
