I would say that is not surprising. Many posts on batteries dying at 5yr or 50,000 miles or there abouts.

Yup... I always replace my batteries around the 5 year mark. I don't like waiting for them to fail.
Same thing happened to me. But I was sitting on the beach. It started there and lasted another week and a half!
I had no warning with mine either. I went to campus for class and came back about 2 hours later to a completely dead vehicle!

Went out this morning and no clickie, jumped it and went to a meeting at work, I didn;t make it all the way ahd she died at a traffic light.
What sucks is I've been reading the optima/ yellow,red top thread and was going to do this before winter.
Shouldn't have procrastinated.
Now I got a battery but not the one I wanted.
I didn't see it in this post but somewhere else where all the dash lights flash and and the spedo and tach go crazy.
It was the weirdest thing to watch.
When I put a load on it (turned on the blower) everything would go back to normal.
Oh well
