The original battery in our Highlander is showing it's age with occasional slow starts and minimal reserve capacity resulting in a couple jump starts in the last 2 months.
From what I can see, it's a Johnson Controls Type 24 and I believe a Dec 18, 2013 build date.
This battery definitely lasted a good long time, and I'm open for ideas as I do like the AGM batts, have a 6YO XS Power in my 2002 GMC with zero issues.
Looking at warranties and prices, seems the price of lead sure has gone through the roof....
I know battery topics get beat to death but it's forever changing tech and quality.
I'm fine with spending $150-200 on a battery to get 7 years out of it. I spent more on my XS battery but don't feel I gained a huge amount of reserve capacity which is a big deal IMO if I'm listening to the radio for 30 min or more.
