However, the choice that I currently consider most balanced in terms of performance/duration/cost is the VARTA Silver Dynamic AGM 95Ah.
Varta working for 6 years
Varta are the best ones I ever used. I use them in my car key too and its the only battery that lasts years instead of 2 months at most.
The original Nissan battery in my 2015 still lives on in my 78 vette. I replaced the Nissan battery because I was going on a 7600 mile total trip and didn't want to take chances.
I still use a factory Audi (Varta) from 2014, so 11 years, but I'm not sure it will survive the first -15-25C this winter.
My VARTA on the e46 compact lasted 8years
a used 2013-2015 Nissan Leaf. Tennessee winters should be at least somewhat mild so they should be gentler on the battery, and it's best if you can park it somewhere in the shade. They often go for $2k-$3k private sale around me because the battery life is fading and nobody wants a car with 40-60 miles of range after "filing up." Slow charging using a standard 110V outlet is better for the battery and should suffice for your use case as long as you can charge overnight and maybe longer over weekends.
2013 Leaf! We loved it but the ~90 mile range made it a work and home only car.
The OEM battery was junk and crapped out the next day after I got home from purchasing it.
replace battery twice..something is draining it..and 3 x not starting...had to use a jump starter to get it to turn over... no codes registering and dash indicators are not helping..once I get it running all warnings disappear....so I drive around with when is it going to happen again....
