    I've got a V/A meter. I'll have to do some testing to see if a charge going in one set of terminals is measurable on the other.

    If the testing works out, I'm kinda wondering if I can put a neg terminal on passenger side battery and the positive on the driverside battery terminal...

    You're overthinking it. They are already connected together VIA the battery cables. Hook your maintainer to one and let it ride :D

    Batteries are just sooooo damned expensive. I don't want to screw one up, and have to replace them both again. The cheap set are $400+ and the premium batteries are double that. :annoyed:

    In 2021, I bought a premium rebranded Northstar battery from Batteries+ for the Taco. It was about $350 for one battery. A couple months ago it was dying on the new owner. I was able find the receipt and get it replaced just under the 4 year warranty. Even with new batteries in the truck I still carry cables, and a jump pack because battery issues have left me stranded way to many times.

    I understand, the 1st Duramax I had, I went to lunch and was sitting in the Bojangle's drive through. Cut the truck off to order and then it wouldn't start back. One of my batteries went bad and it wouldn't do squat. Had to get the people behind me to back up and push it out of the way and call my boss to come get me.

    I must be just a simple guy, I'm stoked to have the 2 cylinder Kohler PRO under the hood of my new $50 beater Sears GT with a 46" deck. I can cut the grass at WOT in the fastest setting for the hydrostatic trans. I must be pushing 8 mph!

    Used the FEL on the Ford with a chain and a set of log tongs to pick up and move the rounds from behind the shed and in the ditch to a spot I can get em to my splitter. Also used it to lift the log to prevent the rounds from binding when cut off.
    Kubota got delivered today. It'll be used for tighter jobs, but the Ford is still the muscle.
    Trailer has just over a cord of cut and split in it, which I will be delivering to a family friend tomorrow.

    My FIL has one, I’ve never used it though. I think he’s had pretty good service out of it.

    You will be impressed with the detail level Wright puts into their equipment.

    Really like my Wright ZXT.

    Its like they pimped out a Hustler.
