A number of months ago, I was warned that my car's battery was on its way out and it would be necessary to buy a new one. I've had my car for 3 years and the battery (an Interstate) was in it at the time; however I am unsure of its age.
I did my research and found that Interstate and Costco have the best batteries both in the opinions of customer and expert reviewers (such as Consumer Reports).
A couple of weeks ago, my car's battery was drained when my fan ran for hours. Though I realised it was not the battery, but the fan causing the problem, I decided to purchase a battery. I chose Costco because of the ease, the price, and their reputation. My fan decided not to act up again after that day (yet) so I've had no other problems.
I would, however, purchase an Interstate next time (provided the cost is comparable and it is feasible to do so) because of the policies by which Interstate operates.
Here is their mission statement:
and their philosophy:

I would rather support a company such as Interstate that has the same values I have and supports things I agree with.
There's nothing like seeing a company that claims Christian principles and actually backs it up by delivering superior goods.
