IMO, the best charger for your GT is a Deltran Battery Tender Plus. Its technology will not overcharge the battery like some trickle and float chargers will. They are available most inexpensively through several ebay auctions that run all year. About $45 delivered is what you should expect to pay.
It comes with two means of connection ... alligator clips and loop connectors to hard wire your battery so you don't have to constantly remove the panel to access your battery. The other option, which I think is the most convenient, is to buy a special cigar lighter adapter (made to match the Battery Tender connector) from Cool Tech ... part #GT07301. Sells for $9.00. You would then simply plug it into your lighter port and you're connected.

Would you mind sharing your opinion on the CTEK's please?
Your description of your GT battery tender mentions only 2006. So what should a 2005 GT use? Thanks.
Does anybody have any experience with the Chicago Electric float chargers sold at Harbor Freight?
A coupon in holiday flier for $4.98 ea......
The cost is not the issue...
I have used these for years on Mustangs with no problems (regular batteries).
Just wondering if there are any problems using on an Optima battery.
