My first Optima is so old I lost track! It was in my Cobra for several years and then I loaned it to my son for his '66 Mustang. That car was wrecked (not his fault) and we moved the battery to his '65 fastback.

I just dug out the sales receipt and it is dated August 1998! Wow, is 13 years a record? The battery is still going strong...I have been running my second Optima in my Cobra now for over six years. with zero problems. Keep them away from heat and don't let them run dead. They will last a long time.
