I traded in a 2010 that had the original batteries in both fobs after 3 years. About the same length of time with a previous 2007. Moderate to light usage on both cars.

We have a 2007 and I just replaced the batteries for the 2nd time. Not a big deal either. When the dash warning light popped up, I reached into the glove compartment and pulled out my spare battery. I changed it in about 20 seconds. When I got home, I replaced the spare battery.

Don't forget that the fob is "ON" all the time--24/7. So battery life remains at around 2-3 years regardless of how often you drive the car.
I also keep a spare battery at home.

Something you have to realize is that the batteries self-discharge depending on how long they've been sitting. This leads to less than a full charge regardless if it has been used. When you purchase doesn't matter. What matters is how long they've been sitting on the shelf.
