There is more than just CCA to a battery. How well they hold up to vibration and weather cycles are other things to consider. After having my Exide battery replaced 3 times in the first two months I swore I would never but a regular lead-acid battery for the Cobra. I have a Red Optima now. I bought it based on the desert racers stories down here. Supposedly you can endo the truck several times and the battery is still good.
