If you are looking at a 10 year old car with 160K miles, you're not talking about any "snow bird" effect (160K is my average across the ~250 batteries). The failures I would attribute to "snow bird" effect can be counted on one hand.

Interesting. I would not think a battery that lives inside an air conditioned cabin would be effected much by heat.
Lots of questions:
If 10 years / 160k miles is the average in Arizona what is the average nationally? How does Arizona compare to other hot locations like Texas or Florida?
What do you do to have all this cool data?
