Everything is about power. I thought I saw a thread about batteries but maybe I missed it. Looking to upgrade the single stock battery to a dual battery set up and woundering what the best suggestions are for batteries. Something I won't have to replace every couple years.
 
I was thinking maybe Optima but am not sure which one.
 
I'm no expert but you can switch your starting battery to a deep cycle battery. There are enough cranking amps to turn over our motors.
 
These are a good bang for the buck. I am running two of these for my stereo bank.
