I don't know about AutoZone, but Kragen carries Exide Batteries I think.
We were doing a project with solar panels at work and we used a type 41
(funny how that happens). Went through about 15 batteries with no issues
about trade in under warranty. Not the batteries fault, you just can't
deep cycle them.
So.. I now have a Exide in my Toyota PU and a Diehard in my 84 Vanagon.
No problems with either one.
