Walmart and Autozone.

Either one should be fine.

Get the 875 CCA version.

Don't go too cheap if you are keeping the truck!!

You can find good batteries at Battery One or similar shops. A lot of fleet users use their batteries with good luck.

AC Delco has a 3 year unlimited warranty with full replacement, I install alot of their maintenance free batteries in boats, however they are slightly on the higher side of price but have a good product. Haven't had to replace mine yet but will with AC's next year.

I have been an Interstate battery user myself for years. From what I understand the quality level of Interstate has dropped in the last few years, I have never had a problem with the product. Today I had a visit with my dealer for unrelated service and had 2 new Motor-Craft batteries installed, BXT65-850 for $190.00

You must understand one thing about alternators and batteries, the alternator does not charge a battery, only maintains a good battery. Once a battery starts to fail, your alternator is over worked and can fail also. Keep the batteries fresh and you will enjoy a trouble free vehicle.
