Battery Tesla or ODYSSEY

I finally spent the money on an odyssey extreme on my 7.3 along with an aftermarket starter and battery cables. Absolute game changer in the wintertime. I could leave it out in the cold for a week and it would start faster than the old battery setup would in the summer.

I’ve ran odyssey in my RZRs and they always held up through abuse and neglect.

Buy an odyssey. It will pay itself off in the long run nor let you down. I just ordered one for my Rubicon.

I'm running a 320 amp alternator with AGM odyssey battery so far no issues

Tesla on nmc battery drops around 10% after 8 or 10 years (can't remember exactly) from what I read. But lfp battery is inherently able to have longer life span and charge cycles. On top of inherently having ability to be safer / less explodey.

For context, I have a first generation Tesla Model S - 2014. It has 215,000-ish miles on it. The battery capacity has gone down by about 10-12%. It still runs and drives like a dream. It's on the original battery.

I have an early VIN 2020 MYP with 80,000 km; the diagnostic says 87%, so 13% drop in battery health. Range calculation at 100% SOC dropped 4.9%.

I don't want someone else's crusty ass battery. Charge times are already low and are plentiful (Tesla at least), I don't see the utility of swapping the battery out when I could stop for like 15 mins.

I recently had to sell my 2013 model s for scrap value because the battery was out of spec. Tesla wanted 25k to replace. It was right at 200,000 miles.

My first Tesla battery died after 1.5 years of gentle use and the replacement they gave me is currently at 84%. Just like my 2 year old iPhone. Batteries degrade much more than these studies suggest.
