They have higher demands with all the electrical shite on cars.  Also, are you using the car less, as not using it for a few days will have a small impact each time on battery capacity.

Mrs AA's car is used less than mine and the battery is still strong.

Yeah, I’ve noticed that too. Battery life seems to be a lot shorter these days. I was looking at some options on Autodoc recently, and even the more expensive AGM ones don’t seem to last anywhere near as long as the old batteries did.
