    Nah, the salesman didn't hype it up. I just saw the "Dual 730 Amp Maint Free Batteries" under the options and not standard equipment and assumed wrongly that the standard was single.
    The hydraulics have one battery and the winch has a separate battery. Pretty sure I can run the 8k winch off the truck battery with no issues. Won't need it that often. Will still get a pro opinion, I'm not that knowledgeable with electrics.

    Not overly cautious, better safe than sorry.
