I've seen a discussion or two about batteries (somewhat) recently declining in quality, and/or about manufacturers (eg E Penn) being preferable or not preferable.
I feel like I've seen new-ish batteries start to fail on me recently including Walmart batts for our '08 GMT900 Duramax and AGM Super Starts from O'Reilly for my '19 Wrangler JL, but in both cases I can't conclusively rule out parasitic draws so I can't condemn anything right now.
I need to get new batts now for our '02 Ram 2500 CTD and I'd appreciate thoughts on what is good and what is questionable today?
Most of my life I've had REALLY good luck with inexpensive to mid-level batteries but it seems those days may be over??
