[DeTomaso] Battery Tenders

Anyone tried the Bosch AGM battery.  Pep Boys sells them and occasionally offers 30% off which makes them about $130.  They have a 4 year replacement guarantee, which I think is better than the Sears Platinum that sells for over $200.

I've slowly been switching all our car batteries to Sears Die-Hard 
Platinums.  They are re-branded Odyssey AGM Batteries and they are 
really nice.  I also have Battery Tenders that are AGM compatible if I 
need to keep a maintenance charge on one.

The last battery in my Pantera (can't remember the brand), was one of 
those "maintenance free" lead-acid batteries.  It lasted well over 10 
years and was an awesome battery.  But when it finally went out, I 
replaced it with an AGM so I didn't have to deal with lead-acid or vapors.
