I always replaced my batteries at 5 years on all my vehicles, gas or diesel and if I lived in the cold regions of Canada I would change them out every 3 years. Face it, the last thing we want is to be dead on the road and I have never had to ask for a jump in my 40 years of driving, but have jumped many others who probably like to get more time out of their batteries. OEM are not usually the strongest you can by but when I replace I get the most powerful I can get, usually at Costco when they have a discount promotion going on.

Vehicles with two batteries need them both changed out at the same time to insure long life.
