2017 V8 Battery Replacement

Well my 2017 V8 battery died this morning. So, I guess I will be replacing it with an AMG H7 battery. Are there any special steps? My truck does NOT have the auto stop start crap.

You can reset the BMS or if you are able to let the truck sit for at least 8 hours without being touched (no remote or in person lock/unlock or opening doors/hood) then it will reset itself.

Get a Northstar.

I bought the X2Power 94R from Batteries Plus and it is made by Northstar. Has a 60 month free replacement.
It's more expensive but if it lasts only 4 years like an OE battery you'll get a replacement, if it lasts longer it was worth the extra.
