This is in my 2000 7.3 diesel I use for trailer and firewood. Have 2 batteries would not start truck consistently if below 20. since last fall (PO got batteries from advanced auto 3 year full replacement, just over 2 years old) plugged in and drove it to work one day when 20 was the high, had to jump start it to get home. I swapped out the 2 batteries that I use in my tractors; (3-5 years old) same CCA (825) ran truck for over a month even started at -15 no plug in. Tested charging system on truck no problems, starter good) fully charged original batteries put them back in, could tell not up to snuff compared to tractor batteries. Put tractor batteries back in. Took them to auto zone and tested, both batteries failed test. Took to advance auto, surprise they both tested "good�. any Ideas, Clerk told me I needed to clean the battery terminals and charge the batteries, I about throttled the clerk... then I showed him that both post were shiny and clean�. Full warranty ends in October 2016. I just don�t want to be stuck in the woods...again one other detail, with advance auto batteries I would get occasional transmission light for 3-5 minutes about 6 miles from home, then go out, when starting truck tach would jump. Tractor batteries never saw light it in 20+ trips, no tach jump.

Fortunately when you step into your shop and make that jump 50 years back in time to work with your old tractor, this concept goes out the window.
