The other one (duralast one) has a better cca and will perform better in the winter months.
I put an Optima Yellow Top battery into my 2018 OB 3.6R because the CCAs of the stock battery were pitiful (490 vs 720). Maybe check out other brands aside from Duralast? Also, get something that’s way beefier than the stock battery, especially if you live in hot or cold climates.
I don't see it as overkill. It might have unused capacity, but I'd also rather have a battery that stands up to more than just enough.
I e been happy with them in my last 3 vehicles.
I had an Optima red top in my 89 4runner and that thing lasted for 12 fucking years. Needless to say I bought another one.
Just did that on my 19 gsw, no battery management extra thing to deal with, just the two connectors and obd11 for coding to fleece (not binary agm). Only issue I have is the battery blanket doesn't fit the bigger size.
I run the red top. I haven't noticed any issues except it doesn't fit the stock tray.
Replaced my OEM battery with a yellow top and it lasted less than a year. Complete junk imo.
When I worked at the auto parts store, we warrantied a lot of Optima’s. I’d be careful before dropping money for one.
I personally don't care for optima.
