    Hey guys. I looked but didn't see anything about a similar issue.

    What I am getting is that about once.or twice a week for the last month, when I try to start the truck it just clicks a bunch like the battery is dead. However if I wait a bit, and keep trying I will eventually get it to start slowly turning over before it finally starts.

    To me that says that it isn't a battery issue. Any ideas?

    Toyota stock batteries are garbage. Yours (presuming) is 3 years old. Time for an upgrade.

    That's what I was thinking. On my way to upgrade at the moment. Just wanted to see if there was anything else I should be looking at.
