Got it. Less than a Lexus dealer but more than Costco... Some time ago a member posted that the Lexus service writer told them that a non Lexus battery would only last 6 months.
A bunch of pure BS. The Lexus battery was somewhere around $200.00... Costco Interstate is around $80.00. Easy to find out how much a Toyota battery would be. Give 'em a call.

The cost of that "convenience" is actually even higher than it appears at first. Theoretically, you are paying for the convenience with your annual membership fee, but when you consider the jacked up price of the battery plus the cost of the annual membership, there is a lot of profit built into the "convenience" of having someone from AAA come to your driveway to install a new battery in your car.

I live in Canada and CAA is the equivalent. Out of interest I went to their website where you can get the price. They have 2 prices, one for members, and one for non members. Here they are (and remember this is in Canadian $$
-
- Non-member Price $210 .99 plus tax:
-
- Member Price: 185.99 plus tax
-
- 185.99 + Tax
$ US equivalent would be about $160 and $142 respectively.

One thing I will say about Lexus is they freak out when the battery fails. Had this happen on my ES350 and RX 350. Same symptoms, in both cases at about 50 months.
Regarding batteries, I have been using Autozone products, always their higher brand. Great luck, and their warranty is simple, no forms, no cards, no receipt saving, just your name and they look it up from any store.
