Engine wouldnt turn over, not battery
2009 SuperCrew Fx4 engine wouldnt turn over. Only 2 yr old battery but jumped it off and cranked up. Drove to town and would crank again. Wouldn't jump either. 1 hr later pushed the truck across street into a garage parking lot and tried to start it and it cranked right up.
Help please!!!

Don't know how you diagnosed it was not the battery, it sure sounds like a battery issue to me.
At the very least, provide some voltage readings when it won't start.
Also, make note of any modifications to the truck.
When it does not start in park, will it start in neutral ?
The only way to confirm or deny the battery state, is to have a proper load test done on it ( not the Autozone, one size fits all, 10 second load test ).
