It comes with a standard flooded battery. You can usually step up to an AGM in the same Group 48 for longer life, but it isn't required. The 660-760 CCA rating is on the higher end, typical of larger engines and trucks, and it matters most for reliable cold-weather starts. Group 48 defines the case size and terminal layout (standard-terminal layout), so any reputable Group 48 battery will fit the tray and connect correctly.

Where to buy a Group 48 battery

A car battery is heavy and expensive to ship, so buying in person (Walmart, Costco, or a local auto-parts store) often beats online once you count free installation and the core-charge refund on your old battery. To compare prices and reviews online:
