Cheap? $99.99 for a Duralast Gold Battery for my PowerStroke. 1000CA 850CCA- 3yr free replacement-8yr prorate.

I've had good luck with Duralast Batteries. I had one in a old ford truck for 11 years and never had a problem with it. It was still in it when i sold the truck.

But who can afford them? Thats why I bought the Dual Purpose Battery!

Well Duralast is a ford product is it not? Usually thing design for a certain product do better in that product.

Which is why you insist on GM tires filled with GM air, right ?

I dont think duralast are made by Ford, i could be wrong. I thought they were made by Autozone? I could have went to Ford and bought 2 Motorcraft batteries but since the orginals only lasted 5 years, I think they had their chance.

Does anyone know where I can find some Ford air for my tires?

Well of course I have a direct air supply straight from the GM factory piped all the way to my house.

I wouldn't dare mix my air in my tires with just common air.(said with my nose in the air)

What product is it then??? Oh Autolite plugs?

Crmzendrgone · 10-02-2009, 10:42 AM

I don't think you want Ford air in your tires apparently they had a problem with their air causing tires to explode in certain vehicles. . . . . What vehicle is it, rhymes with explode

Sure, sure they blamed the tire manufacturer but we know the truth.

firestone and bridgestone fixed this problem years ago. since then, they have become alot more reliable and dependable. funny though that ford stopped using them and went to hancook which is the worst tire i have ever seen.
