Default AC Delco batteries

Who sells AC Delco batteries? This is the battery in my 2005 GMC Yukon, which fails to start about once every other month or so, which causes me to think I am going to have to replace it, but I cannot find anybody selling it. I do not want to go to the dealer with its huge markup if I can help it.

Thank you, Held for Ransom. I do appreciate you taking the time to look online, but that is a GM dealer. Is anybody but the dealership selling AC Delco anymore?

I used the locator at www.acdelco.com site. It said it was an independent dealer as well as...
CROSSROADS AUTOMOTIVE ( http://www.xroadsautomotive.com/ )
3210 HIGHWAY 34 E
NEWNAN, GA
(770) 254-1514

I used that site to find a local dealer for me.

I not sure about where you are but up here many auto parts stores sell them.

You need to be careful though. Since Delphi's death all regular A-C Delco batteries are now made in Korea only. I've been told that the Delco dealers are loaded up on warranty returns with them. Seems the only remaining U.S.-Canada Delco is their Professional Series.

I think East-Penn has a very good battery line. They also make the Sears Die-Hard brand.

That's disturbing.
