Wow!!! I really started a discussion. And of course I learned a lot. Thanks.
I found the receipt for the Interstate battery thats in the truck now. Installed it in Nov of 2006. Cant understand Why It didnt last longer.
I did find an interstate dealer here in Yakima so I will talk with them about the cost and availability of a replacement. My son has aNoco battery tender that he uses on his Jeep and mustang that have a cable running from the battery to inside the grill. Unfortunatly Noco only makes cables in 18" and 10'. so I may have to use the 10' and bundle it up.
So now off to spend more money on the truck.
