Battery Question

I am thinking of using a Odyssey battery. What do you all think.

I know nothing about that brand, but I used the Optima Red Top after several recommendations on this site. They have lots of cranking amps, and so far it's started the truck first time every time.

Im the same as Joe, no expereince with Odessey, but I love my 12 volt Optima Red Top, let it sit for a month and it still starts and cranks like crazy, after over a year of use.
