I finally had to bite it and buy a new truck battery today. I have been using the Avapow 6000a jump pack all week until I could get to town to buy one.

What a life saver. I could get 2-3 jumps out of it for my F250 and then charge it back up as needed while I was driving.

You can check one out or other vehicle emergency gear on this Amazon list I put together.

Prices are up had to get one a few weeks ago. But the truck starts better.

It definitely was a spendy one. Hopefully I get as long out of the new one as the last, but I doubt it.

Can’t disagree

Love the truck.

Thanks.

Good battery is important. I had a check engine light on, and the scanner said bad cat. The vehicle, a 2016 one ton van with the original battery. I knew the battery was bad because it wasn't pushing full voltage, so sensors start to act flaky.

Instead of spending a pile of money on a new cat, I bought a decent battery. Check engine light went away, and it scanned clean.

If the battery is more than 5 years old, have it tested, especially before winter. I got 8 years out of my last battery, but had some strange sensor issues before I replaced it.

Great advice.
