I still think the best bang for the buck is a standard group 41 battery
under the driver's seat. With a good warranty, (Wal-Mart), just replace when
they fail or even get weak. If you really need more capacity you will have
to give up space someplace else anyway.

For as much as a yellow top costs and @ 48a/h, maybe a better solution is
the Werker 44a/h that does fit in the drivers battery box without
modification. I have one under the seat and two under the sink, I could not
be happier with their performance.
