Hopefully that's at least 220 Grit...

Nothin but John Wayne TP here! I save the 220grit for sanding filler primer!

My OEM batteries only lasted 5.5 years. Didn't even get 6, much less 7 out of them.

Im firmly on the "it's your batteries" train. It's definitely not a fuse.

When my batteries gave up the ghost, it was with no warning. One day worked fine, next day dead. Other powered accessories worked.

As others have said, get your batteries tested. Test them individually.

My OEM batteries lasted about this same amount of time and my truck acted the same; accessories would work but truck would only click and not start. I noticed just prior that some of the electronics (radio, nav, etc.) were acting a bit screwy and that went away when I put 2 new batteries in.

Power to every thing else.


Funny how this guy hasn't been back since this post on 5/1. Probably doesn't want to admit that one or both batteries was bad like everyone tired to tell him.


Just say no to the payload police ">

My dealer told me my batteries were fine. When they tested them they never isolated them. Local auto parts store isolated them and found that they were bad. Back to the dealership with the readings. Dealership admitted they never isolated them to check them..

Just to let everyone know. I just heard from the dealer today after having the truck towed there last Friday,Quick Service, that it was the batteries like everyone said. I am glad I made it home towing from Florida. I parked it and it wouldn't start. I was lucky.
