I've never had a starting battery go beyond 5-6 years but then again it's best to change them before they leave you stranded.

I have always purchased Sears Die Hard batteries. However, they no longer pro-rate their warranties. So what was previously a “100 month” battery has failed at 64 months. In the past I could get a 36% credit, but they no longer do that.

Get the Kirkland one that fits your space. That's my opinion.
