What is a good truck battery?
I have a 2004 Ford Ranger i just bought and unfortunatley it needs a new battery. What is a good brand with a relativley good price and furthermore what kind of battery specifically do i need beyond a 12 volt
There are only a handful of battery manufacturers in the country. All the different brands come from the same factories.
An auto parts store will be able to look up the proper size (group number) for that vehicle. Get the highest Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) you can.
I usually get Interstate batteries for our fleet.
NAPA has a series called the "Legend". It has received very good reviews. Bought two for two vehicles, very happy with them.
- Amplifier connected straight to battery with on/off switch would damage battery in any way? So i did this on my ford fusion 2016 straight connected to the battery with the on/off switch but now the car does not want to start as before makes a little noise like when battery its dead but turn on after 3 to 4 seconds any suggestions? Ideas thanks
- New alternator and battery but battery still won't charge in my ford explorer 93? My battery wouldnt charge So i just replaced my alternator a few days ago knowing it would fix the problem. It appears that the alternator was not the problem. I've got a brand new alternor and when i check the battery(running car), it just stays on 12.5V and doesn't go up. I tried using it yesterday and it just drained out on me. I tried 3 good batteries already and checked if they charge in my car but they don't. Oh, the alternator came with a volt regulator.
- Alternator and battery tested good, but Ford Escape won't crank? I have a 2004 Ford Escape that has had the battery warning light on the dash for about a month. I took it to auto zone and the battery and alternator tested good. Today I'm out and it won't turn over and has no power. The battery terminals are clean and the connections look good. Any idea what might be going on here?
- America's oldest car company FORD is losing $1B and plans to lay off 24,000 Americans who have good jobs, good pay, good benefits, pensions? Do you think that if the NEWEST TAX CUTS (slipped into the latest Medicare Bill last week) for the richest were LIMITED to only $320B instead of $321B, and just give the damn money to FORD instead, would AMERICA COLLAPSE because the Richest 1 percent COULDN'T INVEST in #MAGA?
