New Battery

   / New Battery #31  
We all wish there was some consistency in batteries. The AGM in my 2017 F-150 is original and going strong. I may replace it next year at 8 years old just on principle. You can get cheaper non-AGM batteries that will fit the F-150 but if the truck has start/stop technology, they will have zero warranty.
Not any more…just deleated that piece o crap

Replaced three interstates so far this week. By the looks of the stickers, 2 are probably less than 6 months old.

That is really a sad thing that is happening to you! I would switch battery vendors also!
Unfortunately interstate is a global account with us. So probably 2/3rds of the locations use them.

We pass around equipment pretty regularly. So most of the time when I get new equipment added, it's got an interstate battery in it

Your battery failure rate is still very disturbing. I plan on steering clear of Interstate Batteries for the time being.

That's why I warned of their quality decline
