I live here in Canada and I just want to know how many years is the battery life of my van? Got this vehicle September of 2013. Just asking so I will have an idea when to change the battery before it drains out. Thank you very much and looking forward for your most appreciated reply.

Hard to answer how long it will last. I just do a load test on them yearly. When they test under 75% of the rated numbers they get replaced regardless. For a year number that works out to around five years or so.
