Guess I could sell the OE battery in my '18 to Hunter. It's still doing just fine.
He is stuck up now like me and lives on lithium. Good luck.:LOL:

I have not replaced a battery since I started using float chargers, maybe 9-10 years ago. My tractor still has a 2013 battery.

Wasn't driving enough due to weather down here.
Usually, when it died I would be able to use the charger to jump it. Didn't work this time. Tried a direct jump from the truck: barely turned it over.
Knew that it had been fading for the last year and have been expecting it (as truck battery went almost 5 years to the day).
Actually surprised it hung on for over 6 years.

I got a Walmart H8 AGM 3 years ago and it's been fine. Voltage seems a little wild, almost allowing over charge when you get into boost. Other than that it's fine
Hmmm;;;what were they gettin for Melons three years ago?????[scratch]

I bought the Costco AGM and I wish I had seen the one Dave recommended.
Was doing a lot of weird things before I replaced it and that was almost a year ago.
