I replaced the original battery in my 2014 in May, just as a precaution. I use battery tenders on all my vehicles if they will sit for more than a few weeks. Battery life on all of them including my Harley has been much better than I expected.

Wow that’s really pushing it.! I got 6 years out of my 2019 Z produced in 2018 and thought I was stretching it. Had no issues, but figured it was time and didn’t want anything to start going bonkers. Lucky you.

I don't like hassles-5 years on batteries, 6 years on tires.
