I know the one I will get when it's time to change. It will be Die Hard, size G48, model #50748. It is the AGM type of battery.

Specs Compared to OEM:
CCA @ 0F: DieHard = 760; OEM = 565
20hr Ah: DieHard = 70; OEM = 70
Weight DieHard = 44 lbs; OEM ~40 lbs

I couldn't find the stock OEM battery listed in the Manual.

Factory battery is ACDelco 48 series.
I have had good luck with ACDelco Professional grade batteries and when I replace mine it will be a ACDelco PG48. (gold series) 615 CCA.
Last time I checked it was a 42 month free replacement warranty.

Your battery is already going **** up? Or is this just in anticipation of someday?
