Definitely OEM. I replaced mine 6 weeks ago. I did find out that there are 2 types of OEM's that will work on our 2008 trucks. Make sure you acquire the BRSD part number. I was first given the BR and they work, just lighter in the pad. The best price for Motorcraft brake pads that I found was from:
Motorcraft Premium and Super duty brake pads - Diesel Filters,Additives,brake rotors, and brake pads for Chevy, Dodge and Ford Diesel Trucks and these are the blue pads. Mine took the BRSD 1069's all the way around. Some trucks use the BRSD 1068's on the front. I have a very early Job 1 and attribute some descrepencies to this.

Redux "Check Brake System"
Truck was a little slow to crank this morning. Then it did crank & got the "check brake system" message. Brakes seem to be working fine.
Both batteries replaced once already. Serviced them myself a few months back. Guess I'll plan on servicing again this week with the long weekend coming up (Unless forced to deal with sooner than I want to ).

My oem batteries did not last long at all. They gave out just after 36,000. After that I could not bring myself to get two more so I bought BOSH. They have been great.
I am glad some people are having good luck with the oem batteries. I wonder if the FL heat had anything to do with my problems?

I may catch heat for this but my OEM's went south right after I bought my used 08 about a year ago. I bought replacements at Walmart for $200 installed. 3 year replacement warranty. I figure for that price I can keep replacing them if they do fail in the 3 years. I called Ford and they wanted around $220 each.
