How long has your battery last?

Discuss ..... And I mean stock battery.

My cars an 07 and I still have the stock battery and has yet to die.

Now that I say this it'll be dead tomorrow. Not bad tho. About a 9 year run.

I had to replace mine in '13 after it was only 3 years old.
I blame the fact that my car was sitting a lot and slowly losing charge.
I replaced it with a heavier duty battery and installed a trickle charger.

I replaced mine last year, didn't want to deal with a dead battery in the cold.
