I've got a '97 F Super Duty with 7.3 PSD. I think the batteries might be on the way out. I've had the truck for 3 years or so and they were in it when I bought it. Currently it's got 2 Interstate 850 CCAs.
I looked for a couple replacements tonight when I was shopping for a spare tire & rim at the local Tractor Supply. All they carry are Exide, and of course the 750 CCA battery recommended in the Exide book there were out of stock.
What is it I should be looking for in batteries for this truck? CCA? Reserve power? Never battery shopped for a diesel before.
