I'm looking for a new 24F battery for my '15 Camry. I have had really good luck in the past with Johnson Controls batteries. The OEM battery is a JCI battery made in the US and still tests good at 6 years (I'm just changing to be proactive). Before I had bought JCI batteries at AAP with the coupon codes and would get 5+ years out of them, but no more discount. The last Walmart battery I bought was a JCI one as well that is still going at 5 years. Now, my local Walmart only has the East Penn batteries (Everstart Maxx), but they are by far the cheapest. I've never had one of these, and don't like the lack of caps to top off the water. But I'm willing to give them a try. Another option is a Toyota Truestart Battery from the dealer. It's about $15 more than the Walmart one and I'm told they're supplied by Interstate. Are those JCI batteries? I've also heard since JCI was bought and changed to Clarios the quality isn't the same as the ones I've had experience with (still made in US?).
Any recommendations would greatly appreciated!
