You could be correct about the hot vs cold weather climates. But, I don't think that parking the car in a garage vs outside has much affect on the life of the battery in Florida. My garage does not get hotter than the outside temperature. However, I think that using a garage in a cold climate will extend the battery life because you will reduce cold starts.
