Battery: What's Your Best Pick?

Sorry to further complicate this thread! I was sold on the Costco Interstate 27F but I happened to be at my local Toyota dealership this weekend and asked about batteries and they offer a lifetime battery for $189. The battery itself is no better or worse and likely just an OEM but they'll replace it at any Toyota dealership nationwide for the lifetime of the truck so thinking that might make sense. Anyone go that route yet and what's been your experience?

 

I will buy one of those the next time my truck needs a battery. I plan on keeping my truck for many more years.

 

My 2015 has the factory installed battery. 96k mikes and still going. If I go out of town for a week or 2 and my wife doesnt drive it the battery will be dead when I get back. But I jump it off a pack and let it idle and she's back going.

 

You can’t beat that offer.

 

"moot"

 

My tundra has 60,980 or 37,891 miles. My Tundra got impounded for a month, (don't ask why). I live in Canada and most of my American friends, and cousins know we get horrible frigid weather up here. My truck started in - 50°C. The impound lot guy was impressed cause he had to boost a Ford, and a GMC. Both were pickup trucks, and were 2 years old. Mine is 3 years old now. The impound lot guy wanted to buy it right there for $49,000, and I paid $52,000 Canadian when I bought it brand new. I kept it clean, and no accidents. I do sometimes wonder what battery is in it. I know it's probably a heavy duty one, but can I put any heavy duty battery in it? Again, Tundras rock

*During this covid situation, I hear alot of people want to get their hands on a Tundra and I've had people come up to me and try to give me a price, but I always said hell no.

 

Just finished my battery project today.

I started to 3 weeks back, but the cables were to short.

So I spiced them today.

I installed the Odyssey PC2150 deep cycle battery.

It's a group 31.

I choose this one, because I am adding a topper( AT Summit), that we will sleep in. It has a furnace and a fan, plus lights. Didn't want to kill my stock battery by pulling it down.

R65

 

Do you have a list of parts?

 

I had a relative in the city pick me up an Odyssey ODP-AGM27F to install this summer/fall, was originally planning to get Northstar but with the buy out/discontinuation and higher CCA I figured why not. Looks physically identical and same tech- bit of a gaudy colour but that’s just me being difficult haha.
