Buy a medium quality battery and you can get a trickle charger to keep the car from decharging it will charge battery slow as it's parked it plugs into the wall

Optima batteries are not what they once were, also they are very expensive. Buy any name brand battery and get a battery maintainer, not a trickle charger. Use the battery maintainer to keep the battery charged while the vehicle is being stored and the battery should last many years. Deltran makes very good battery maintainers.
