Depends on your budge and what you are going to do with the truck, winch, extra lights?
In my DI I have a Duralast Gold, 1000 CCA and cost me $70 with a 8 year warrenty.

If you're not adding lights/winch/etc pretty much anything will be fine, the one Spike mentioned is great. If you are planning on adding high power accessories consider a Yellow Top Optima or some other deep cycle battery.
