There is this kid bragging about how he added "extra juice" To his 12 volt battery for his Silverado. He then goes on to say that it is a marine battery. What the hell!?

Silverado Hybrid? Could be possible. But we all know it's not and he's full of shit.
He probably just bought an Optima battery.

Why not?
Other than being pointless, it's a battery. It should work, no?

tell him your alternator puts out 13.8 volts and then have him run a multimeter on it.

Nothing wrong with a marine battery. Plus you can use it to charge up your RC planes and helicopters without having to worry about starting your car at the end of the day.

Either poser or slightly possible is he added an extra battery for off road stuff like lights or a winch.

What he means is he was changing his battery down by the boat ramp and accidentally dropped it in the bay.

I had a marine battery in my Land Rover, but then I bought a dual battery tray when that battery gave up the ghost. It's possible.

If it's a Marine Deep Cycle (like most of them are) it's wrong for the application. It's made to discharge slowly. A car battery is made for a big draw when you hit the starter on a cold day.
This is why deep cycle batteries are used for backup systems and cannot be replaced with car batteries. Deep cycles in a car application won't have as many CCAs so they won't provide as much starting power.
