Batteries + truck battery quote


bags

Recommended Posts

I just got several quotes on new truck batteries, NAPA @ 119.00, freightliner @ 150.00, interstate store @ 150ish and a couple more in the 135.00 range. All these quotes were for 950 CCA or better, but not more than 1000. I then called Batteries + and they quoted me 85.00 each for 950 CCA if I bought 4. All batteries have an 18 month warranty. Does anybody have any experience with Batteries + truck batteries?

 

Thanks for all the input.

I bought four from Batteries Plus 2-1/2 years ago and they were fine until I ran them flat by leaving the cab interior light on for a couple of weeks! Charged back up OK, so we'll see how long they live. Other than that they have been fine.

X3. I replaced all 4 while in Mission 2 years ago and the best price was from the Volvo dealer believe it or not. I don't remember the price but it was good.

I checked with the Austin and Waco tx volvo dealer. Waco wants 79.00 and austin wanted 91.00. Austin has always been more expensive on parts in the past. Thanks for all the input!
