MrSkippyJ Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 The XS website doesn't have a selection past the year 2012 and using the 2012 version of my truck leads me to a D6500 for a starting battery. Am I wrong or is my option for a starting battery from XS nearly $500?? $500 for a single battery is a fucking tough pill to swallow...

reedal Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Maybe if you're going by the MSRP they have listed on their site... http://skyhighcaraudio.com/xs-power-d6500/ Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32
MrSkippyJ Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 Yeah, noob mistake on my part. However what I really want to know if that is in fact the right battery for my truck. Have I just been cursed with an expensive battery in the front of my truck?

reedal Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 What truck do you have? you could always measure your current battery and compare specs to the D6500 Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32
MrSkippyJ Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 2013 f150. I can go measure, didn't think about that. Quote F150: Stock 2019 Harley Road Glide: Amp: TM400Xad - 4 channel 400 watt Processor: DSR1 Fairing (Front) 6.5s -MMats PA601cx Lid (Rear) 6x9s - TMS69
reedal Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) D6500 was the size for my 97 explorer, and D3400 is the size for every GM SUV/Truck in the last twenty years, so I'm sure ford probably is the same Edit: same as in D6500 being the correct size for ford SUV/Trucks over the years Edited March 7, 2016 by reedal Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32
Esgedi Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 2013 f150. I can go measure, didn't think about that. It should say what BCI group your battery is on the outside. If it's G65, the D6500 is what you want.

MrSkippyJ Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Posted March 9, 2016 Just to make sure before I order, the D6500 is the right battery for an underwood starting battery right?

reedal Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Does it meet or exceed the amount of cranking amps and cold cranking amps you require?
