I was planning on getting a yellow top Optima but after reading through all of the battery threads here it looks like the Optimas get about a 50/50 review. The Odyssey looks to be mostly positive reviews so I'm kind of leaning forwards the Odyssey now. Does the Odyssey need constant charging like the Optima? What size/part number Odyssey would I need? It'll be trunk mounted. Car has a few power options like a/c, stereo amp and dual electric fans if that makes a difference. Thanks.

I have an Odyssey battery in Dust Off and two more in my 07 Duramax. I also do not leave the battery on a tender. They have a design life of 8-10 years according to the Odyssey web site. I purchased my batteries from Summit Racing. I'm using the PC-1500 Odyssey.
