Depends on temp. If you live in a very hot place, you'll get 3~4 years. If your in a very mild place, than expect 5~8 years.

Yep. Very hot place. Most auto people around here say 3 years and my OEM lasted 28 days short of 3 years (and 138k miles) and I replaced my 2nd battery (which was only a 1 year guarantee battery) after exactly 3 years (and around 86k-88k miles).
