Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

Welcome to TW!

 

Looking for recommendations in the Madison area -- need a new battery before winter sets in. I have a 1st gen tacoma double cab no heavy electrical needs (no winch or extra lights). Looks like 24F is the size I need. Most of what I can find are 3 year warranties at the local autoparts stores with Advanced Auto/Carquest with the best deal with coupons. I did purchase one of the high end AGM made by Northstar for my boat which I am very pleased with and they come with a 5 year warranty from Batteries plus, but those are a bit spendy. Also, interstate doesn't show a 24F option but a group size 34 that would fit but still a 3 year warranty. Sears was a bust locally when I looked online.

Any recommendations on where to buy or experience with a good battery?

 

Farm and Fleet has really good batteries I know. Fleet Farm as well.

 

I like AC Delco or Optima. I think the gold series AC Delco carries a 48month warranty.

 

Interstate at Farm & Fleet. I got the gold and I didn't get the 27F, don't need a 27F, just got one with the correct post configuration and enough CCA to get the job done. Warranties don't really sway my decision making much. With batteries they'll prorate you if you have a early failure anyway. Is that really a warranty?

 

Does anyone have any good recommendations for lift install? I have an Icon Stage 4 kit sitting in my computer room right now...

Well, I live in Madison. I'm pretty flexible where to go to though -- my girlfriends family lives in the Twin Cities.

 

We do mod days everyonce in a while and i would be willing to help pm me if you want with your phone #

 

Milwaukee, anyone venture up to the U.P.?

 

Been to the Boundary Waters twice & Sylvania Woods many times

 

My sister lives in Iron Mountain.

 

I grew up in the U.P.

 

I used to hunt by Stonington.

 

Is there ever a TW WI meet up?

 

I'm always in, so if you know of one let me know.

 

If there's enough interest, it'd be cool to do a group trip up to the U.P. or something
