    Glad he got a new battery for himself and that's a nice looking battery.

    I'm guessing you were unable to tell it was starting to die on you?

    Just over a year ago I started noticing a very weak crank-over. About 2months later I go to get my oil change and the guy did a free battery check and told me I should start thinking about a new battery. I told him I was already planning on it. He showed me the numbers and from 650cca it was barely doing 248.

    I got the Walmart EverStart MAXX g.s. 24F and have been really happy with it.

    When my truck was sitting out in the desert for about 2months, I was worried I'd need a jump, but it cranked over without any issues like it never sat.

    Anyways, I've had mine just over a year and it's still running strong. Very pleased with my purchase.

    Sorry man. Husky Haven may be your last resort. I spoke with my neighbor and he got his from a friend (similar situation as yours). The friend of his got the pup from Husky Haven and had nothing but praises. I’ll keep asking around in the meantime.

    Ease up on cca and get a bigger reserve capacity on the battery and they last longer.
