Batteries are one of the cheapest maintenance items on the car. If the battery costs $120 and lasts 6 years...that's $20/year. If you're driving 15K miles per year, three oil changes and filters per year will run you $120/year....or six times the cost of the battery.
I replace my car batteries at the 4 year point, regardless of the lack of symptoms. Also, I replace the voltage regulator at the 120K mile point...before failure. I do not get stuck in the middle of nowhere in the winter with a dead battery. I'm probably spending an extra $10/year on batteries......a major expense to consider.....in order to avoid getting stuck.
