Yup, that's one that came to mind. We try to keep things a bit more civil on f150Online.com though. And I'm the "liberal" moderator there! Here, there's nothing to do as a moderator!

I think if you saw a "resting state battery" - disconnected from ALL draws and not connected to a charger for a couple of days showing below 12.4 V, I'd think it had a problem - possibly an internal short or so badly sulphated it couldn't take a full charge.
My "Battery Maintainer Plus" says a battery in the "grey" area CAN be revived though desulphation.
One thing I thought was interesting though in the link I posted last time was that an alternator is NOT a battery "charger" - it's more a battery maintainer. If you need to charge a battery, do NOT use the alternator to do it!
