Trojan Batteries are the best. You Can get them in Memphis I know. Their website has dealer locations. They will be around 500-700 for the set.

Are you needing them for an electric golf cart that needs 6 or 8 batteries......or one for a gas golf cart? If for a gas one, like said above, i'd go with NAPA (i went through 2 or 3 from other places and finally got the NAPA brand and haven't had a problem since. Get the largest one that will fit in the space and make sure it has the most cranking amps for that size (at least I needed that b/c I have xm radio in mine and it would cut off everytime I started up until I got a stronger battery with more cranking amps). If it's for a 36 or 48v......i've used trojan and they work well.....i've also used a generic brand and they lasted just as long. You'd have to change them out every couple of years or so anyway.....even if you only use distilled water, keep them charged and all that jazz.

Creachs there in Nellyville has the trojan, but if not sams will have the best price. I have used both and cant tell the difference.

I am in the battery industry, and have used various types in golf carts. The trojan is more expensive than the others, however the quality is far better. They have a t605 model the is competevive in price with others and still out performs them. I would be happy to help you more if you need.

I would go to your local CARQUEST or NAPA as they both carry East Penn/Deka batteries which are arguably the best batteries made. I definitely wouldn't go with Exide as they may not be in business much longer due to recently loosing 2 large customers, Wal-Mart and NAPA. Don't know anything about the Trojan batteries. My .02 cents.
