I have always had good luck with AC Delco and to me there is somthing about my GM vehicles and AC Delco Batteries. Here are some actual experiences,

My 1996 Camaro SS- AC Delco Battery 2002-2009 2009- still strong
My 1998 Olds Aurora Original Battery Changed 2009
My Fathers 2002 STS Cadillac Original Battery Changed 2011
My 2002 Chevy 2500 HD Original Battery Changed 2007

I have had a great expereince wiht AC Delco. Granted the sealed battery in the Aroura and STS are a cut above the rest. I have also have had great luck with Interstate batteries in my farm equipment as well.

Just to add to msorenso's good luck with AC Delco batteries, I just changed the original battery in my 2004 Monte Carlo in September 2013. Of course it was two weeks before trading it off.

The first 6 years I went through 3 AC Delco batteries. The last time was on a Sunday. I was going to an event and the only place open to get a battery was Wal-Mart. That was 9 years ago and it is still going strong. Yes my AC's were correct and new for the car. In my opinion AC Delco is crap!

That is great to hear it lasted that long! I have had really good luck!

Fyi, this is the best price I can find on a new Odyssey battery.

$350 for a battery? That's crazy. Tartop batteries can be had for less.

I have no idea what you looked at but the Odyssey batter is $233.99 with free shipping.

Maybe that is Canadian dollars you are seeing.

interstate in my 1955 chevrolet for 13 years. Car driven once per month. Never on charger or tender. Is just always up. Previous ten year on interstate too for same car and seldom driven. Interstate going into my Z when the current delco goes. And no I don't work for Interstate. But I have often wondered why they seem to be so good.
