Short trips and extreme heat will kill a battery in 3-4 years, especially the short trips
because the battery doesn't have time to come to a full charge.

Driving in Florida has some draw backs like brakes.
I use to get 80-90 thousand miles on my brake pads up north.
Down here with all the stop and go, slowing down, and stop lights, I need new brakes around 40 K.
