How many miles have you all had on your car before you had to replace the battery?

My co-worker has a 03 TLS & his battery just died. 22K miles & 3 years.
Replaced it with a Die Hard.

I had mine for exactly 5 years, 65,000 miles, and I replaced it last weekend even though it was still working perfectly fine.

hey mate, i don't know what kind of electronics you have in your car, but I got the Optima Yellow top. It's killer. I need it so I can power my dvd player, 2 12's, 1000 watt amp and rearview camera. These things run forever. It's only like 30-40 bucks more than the regular batteries. Or go with the red top for speed.
