What are a 2014 GMC Sierra’s 1500 OEM battery specs?

I need to replace the battery in my truck, and I’d like to use an OEM battery. Problem is, I’m the third owner, so I’m not sure if the old battery is the original. What are a 2014 GMC Sierra’s 1500 OEM battery specs?

An educated guess is that your Sierra came off the showroom floor with an ACDelco Gold Group 48 battery. Whenever you’re shopping for a battery, you need to be sure of your truck’s battery’s group size and its minimum cold cranking amps (CCA).
If you have an OEM battery in the truck, this information (assuming it is still legible) is on the label. But you can also search an OEM GMC parts site with your Sierra 1500’s model year, engine size, and trim level in hand.
Popular battery types are described below.
Battery type
Details
Flooded Lead Acid Battery
The oldest type of battery; usually, these batteries are not sealed, which necessitates adding an electrolyte solution to the battery occasionally; they are relatively inexpensive.
Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM)
Particularly for their newer models, GMC recommends this type of sealed battery; it costs more, but gets high marks for performance and being maintenance free.
Lithium Ion (Li-ion)
Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (EV) require this kind of battery; as one would imagine, they are very expensive, however they last a long time.
When you realize it’s time to replace your battery, the cost may put a dent in your monthly budget, but
