    To be fair, they seem to be better than they used to. My car hit 200k not too long ago and still has its original battery. I have no problems with it but I remember having much newer batteries where it was a gamble on cold mornings if it would start. Purely anecdotal though.

      My car has 130k and I keep wondering when the battery is going to die, because when I was younger they didn’t last this long and I just kinda forgot about it until it occurred to me recently.
