there dropping to 12.3 as normal voltage after sitting overnight in the cold. I have a battery tester and even fully charged after sitting inside getting warmed up they drop to less than 200 cranking amps.
Well i was using a vw jetta diesel but the radiator and water pump went out at the same time and the water pump is a nightmare to change.I know I always get 1000 cca batteries..and winter takes its toll.
A full size truck isn’t the best thing to have if you have limited funds. From what I’ve seen it only makes the situation much worse. Perhaps snag a small truck or simple sedan until you have enough funds to not skimp on things like batteries.
Just my thought..regarding batteries you’ll have to settle with the biggest ones you can find

Check at your local Volvo, rush truck parts, k3 worth or peterbuilt dealer. The usually have good prices and frequent sales.
