As many posters have suggested....there are only a few companies that makes automotive batteries anymore.
Not "suggested" - documented - with caveats, LOL..;)
Exide, Johnson Controls.
They may mfg their products in Mexico & other countries.
Johnson Controls = good financial condition.
Delphi (AC Delco)- *was* one of the big 3, was acquired by Johnson.
Exide = not too good. Recent plant closures, 2 recent bankruptcies.

(*something to "crow" about, LOL)
Johnson Controls supplies batteries to WalMart, Sears, Costco, and....BMW !!,:B
