I'd go ahead and replace a five year old factory battery. Especially since you live in a cold area. I'd get a battery tender to keep the present battery charged while in storage and wait for a sale on a new battery.
I've got the original battery in my '09 but it's a lot warmer where I live. I can tell it's getting a little weak and wouldn't want to chance it another Winter if I lived farther North.
