Has anyone used the cheap $68 batteries they sell at Freightliner?
My batteries died and I went to the dealer as I’ve seen the cheap batteries there before. They run my vin and told me that I have the Odyssey Extreme in my truck and these are $1000 each. Told the parts guy there is no way I’m paying $4000 for batteries I’ll take the cheap ones. He tells me these only last about 6 months.
I’m sure they will last more that that. What is your experience within these?
Odyssey Extreme are $408 on Amazon, but I think that’s still too much for a battery.

I have an $80 battery from FL it's a year old and fine. Really you only get 2 to 3 years out batteries anyway. 300 for 4, so you can replace all of them 3 times and still be cheaper by a $100 for one special battery.
