The original batteries in my 2011 Duramax lasted five years. One went bad, the other checked OK but I replaced both - with "quality" Walmart Maxx EverStarts.

The problem showed up on a Sunday morning while we were on the road and Wally World was the closest option. On the plus side, they have a 5 year warranty and as mrgrayaz said, WM has a store everywhere you go.

Mr. REWahoo... I have a 2013 Duramax and need to replace both Batts. Due to availability in most places I will probably go with the Walmart Everstart's. Which "Everstart" battery did you get? I was hoping to get the Top of the Line but they don't offer it in my area of Southern Michigan.
