Watched it the other day. Wasn't really anything new that hasn't been discussed here. Yes it degrades. Is it something we should worry about? Not really. That's what I got out of it, but I do like his videos. Been a sub for a couple years now.

I fall into the "who cares" camp. I own the truck to use it and if goes south in the process then: less then 100K then it's Ford's problem, more then 100K then it gets picked up by the extended warranty, more the the extended warranty then I'll cross that bridge when I come to it ... assuming, of course, the battery or I don't die while on the bridge!

Extended warranty doesn't add anything to the battery coverage per comments on this forum, but, otherwise, I'm in agreement
