Just replaced original oem battery this weekend. '07 with just under 83k miles on it. Car was still starting, but under duress; battery test revealed 233 cca's. Went to menards, got 30 month free replacement group 35 battery for like $70. Batteries plus wanted $100 for their "cheap" and Fleet Farm said they didn't even have a battery for the yaris.

That is a great price for a 35 with that level of guarantee . On a trip later this year I'll be near a Menards, but the only trouble (for me, not for many others) would be the geography of executing the warranty, as the two southernmost stores are in Wichita, KS and Cape Girardeau, MO. I've found Batteries Plus to be overpriced on nearly everything they carry. I've comparison shopped there, but I've never ended up buying anything.
