Optima is made in Mexico or China now. Not the same quality they started with.


Really? I was going to replace mine that's been sitting dormant for the last 3 years (and assumed to have gone bad) w/ another one because I actually had good results with it. If they're not as good now as the original one I bought 5 years ago, that's too bad.

FWIW, my family's daily drivers all have either Interstate or Die Hards in them and the Interstates have generally lasted right about 5 years before needing replacement.
