I put a new battery in my Raptor today. After 5 years, 1 month and 86k miles the oem battery died. I put in a Diehard Platinum, 930cca @ 0 F.
AGM construction, made by Odyssey.
4 year free replacement warranty.
The 6.2 snaps to life now.
Not too exciting, some days are like that.

Sweet, and stock motorcraft filter?

No, I use the Ford racing one, but I would try the Mobil 1 Extended Oil filter.

The Ford dealer does mine for $29. My Mercedes always ran $180ish. I'm not doing ANY manual labor for $30. :)

Sounds to cheap to be a good deal, are watching what kind of oil they are using.
They might not even be giving you the blend oil.
Think about it, if the filter alone cost $5.80, what kind of oil at 7 qts. is going to equal $23.
Although using 50 gal drum prices it might just work out, that they use the blend stuff.

$49.95 for 7 QTS. of blend and a cheap Motorcraft oil filter is the norm and that's Preferred Customer or with coupon. Reg $69.95
More if you want 100% synthetic!

SVC light tower, Truck Covers USA roll cover, swapped in a Whelen 30" led bar behind the grill, led strip lights in the bed, oil change and tire rotation. Love the light tower and the new Whelen light bar is surprisingly a ton brighter than what I had in that location. Can't believe it took me so long to get new lighting in the bed. Love having lights back there even just for loading stuff on a trip to Menard's. Went with red lighting and it is not as harsh as the white lights that I had for a while.
