Winter is coming check your batteries....shout out to SEARS

I agree... I have Platinums in my 7.3 truck, and Interstates (Johnson Control makes them of course) in just about everything else I own, inluding my 6.0 and my E350.
When my Interstates in my 6.0 get tired I am going to do Platinums in it as well. I keep it on a Battery Tender when not in use so the Interstates will probably last a while anyway.
If anyone wants to see the most sanitary work truck engine compartment in the entire free world, ask Nice Work Truck for a pic of his Platinums.

I went back with Motorcraft 850's in my truck since the originals were 7 years/90k miles old. They were still holding good starting amperage...but I felt time was against me. They came with 3 year free replacement/100 month warranty (64 month prorate after the first 3 years). Any Ford dealership can/should handle your warranty issue if you have a failure out on the road. I work away from home allot, so dealership network was a bonus to me. One of the old batteries I stuck in our Explorer and the other is in a buddy's daily driver. Both never leave town...so if/when they die it won't be a huge deal to recover the fumble. The question now is how long with they go before they do give up the ghost...they're at least 8 years old, that's when the truck was built and they were the originals from KTP.

I have cleaned the engine compartment in my 6.0 probably 3 or 4 times a year since it was new. I have never had an issue. I do use compressed air or my Stihl hand held leaf blower (don't laugh!!) to get most of the moisture off afterward.

The way fire department guys do it, with a damp rag followed by a dry rag. NEVER use a pressure washer.

I just use a citrus clearer and spray down with Adams polishes VRT dressing at a 50/50 mix with water 2-3 times a year.
