At my house we will do a load of laundry at bed time and then set the dishwasher to a 4 hour delay also. This with a real slow drip works 99.9% of the time.

Truck didn’t want to start yesterday morning. Battery only had 8.3v. Wife was already at work and my Noco charger would only output 11v for some reason. So I had my dad swing by and I jumped it off to get to work. Truck only ran about 20 minutes total so I figured it would be dead again leaving work last night but it started on the first crank and started fine this morning as well. Guess I’ll go Friday when I’m off and get it tested. Cheapest I’ve found the AGM battery it needs is $180 so hopefully this one still has some life left in it but it’s 4 years old so I’m sure it will need replaced.
Nope thankfully. The PEX piping combined with the Rockwool has kept everything warm. My house has stayed around 67-69° without a heater or external heat source. That Rockwool is proving to be some damn good insulation.
My S60's side mirrors were frozen shut. I had to manually open them
Got into work this morning once the sun came up. There was some little ice patches on the sides of the freeways but that was about it. When I went to bed, I had a sheet of snow on my cars and my driveway was iced over but by the time I got up, it had cleared up. The cars were still frozen but that was about it.

SuperDuty did not want to start yesterday. Plugged it in and about 45 minutes later she fired right up. I'm not going anywhere though for a while. Pick up the kid from school later I guess... be nice and not make her walk.

The wal mart AGMs have the best price and warranty out there right now.

Yeah that’s the $180 one. I can get OEM from RockAuto for a few dollars less but comes out higher after shipping.

The NAPA AGMs only last 3 years ish. Burnt through 2 sets of those already. Wal Mart platinum have a 4 year warranty and are available on just about every corner.

I put a Diehard Platinum in my wife’s car about 4 years ago and it’s been great. But don’t really want to spend the extra $70 this time. I’ll go with Walmart if mine tests bad.

It is a diesel but still only one battery because it’s a baby diesel
. I remember having to replace both batteries on my old 5.9 though. It sucked.
