I just replaced my factory battery a few weeks back with an Optima Red top (4post) from Sams. It had a longer warranty than the Yellow one plus I plan to go with a Hydraulic winch so deep cycle performance isn't as important to me.
It looked very small compared to the factory batt. but the cranking amps were higher. I would like to run all my accesories (amp, lights) off the top post and just the starter off the side mount so thing aren't so cluttered. Right now, the connections are all back to back with ring terminals.
We'll see how it performs overtime, I've never had an optima in a Truck. . .
I run an Optima Blue Top - Start/Deep Cycle combo on the Boat. It holds a charge very well (over several months) and will run the stereo for hours.

That's weird - what was the difference in the warranty between the red top and yellow top? I'm going to Sears or Sam's tomorrow, and STILL haven't decided which way to go! LOL
