batteries

What batteries do you use, I should be getting new ones this weekend! I currently have interstates and am very unhappy I bought them new a year ago! And they are already dieing, they can vary crank my truck! So what do you use and how do you like them?
i replaced my alt the same time i bought these batteries, and i run no aux stuff off of them besides the cb and gauges

They should still be in warranty after only one year. I use Motorcraft and am very happy with them.

I have used Interstate batteries in the past with very good results, as stated above, you should be able to get a free replacement if they are bad. make sure your connections are clean and tight and have your alternator and the batteries checked by someone who knows what they are doing. Your batteries should be group 65. Your problem could also be with your starter, or a ground wire. Good luck with your search.
