What Size Battery Do I Need?

I have a Sears Diehard Battery In The Truck Now And I'd Like to replace it before winter hits. the battery in there now is 700 cca. i installed a snow plow and a few strobe lights on the truck. ive always hear good things about Exide Batterys and my father has always had good luck with them. i went to Menards and found a Exide top and side terminal battery with 770 Cold Cranking Amps at 0 degrees and 950 Cranking Amps at 32 degrees. the price on it is $77.94. i was wonder if that would work for me

Re: What Size Battery Do I Need?

If it has the correct terminals yes. I usually just go overkill on my trucks and get the biggest and strongest that can fit in the box
