I was going to go with Odyssey batteries - cheaper but not quite the same amp ratings.
anyone interested
http://www.odysseyfactory.com/specs.htm

this one in particular PC625

At a show here a month or so ago they priced this battery at $120 can.

the 7 lb one wouldn't be fit for daily driving usage, right?

Kinetik batteries are another good choice as well.

Replace those every year, or you will be sorry. Even more often in colder climates. I've seen alot of those die. If you have upgraded your stereo or anything don't even bother. I've also seen them cause many tuning problems on higher powered cars.
