[QUOTE="Tommy VanNess, post: 1000805, member: 54664"] Battery is only about a year, just replaced it last year. (Duralast Gold) Also when it wouldn't start, the dash lit up as normal. As for the wiring, I have no idea. I would imagine it was a short of some kind. I was careful not to crank too hard on the strap because we have the composite beds in our STs, but there was a bit of flex in the side. It was the weirdest thing. Sorry I was pretty panicked when I wrote the original post. It wouldn't start, and of course the forklift of the lumber yard needed to go right where I was parked. This will bug me though. Nothing like this has ever happened in the 200,000 miles I have had it. Thanks for the responses guys. I will keep you posted and let you know if I find anything. Tommy [/QUOTE]
