I use Die Hard Golds in all my vehicles, had great luck with em over the years and excellent warranty. 3 years on the Golds, rare chance something goes wrong just take em in say they don't work anymore and get handed a new battery for just the gas it took to get to the store.
After the hell mine have been through the past 5 months before I finally got my air intrusion problem taken care of, I'm amazed they're still working perfectly and holding a charge just like they should be.

If your in the northwest, Les Schwab carries excellent batteries, ( cant remember who makes em) and they have an excellent warranty. Mine are both XHD series i think they were $78 a peice for 780cca or something. Not an expert on battery warrantys, but im pretty sure theirs is about the best. 48mo. free replacement or something, and pro-rated after that up to 8 yrs. The extreme series is even better, but it is pricey, the same that otayhoni mentioned. Anything 700cca + will work just fine, larger batteries typically have more of a reserve.
Having dual batteries can cause some wonky stuff when one goes bad. This is why they must BOTH be replaced with batteries that are the same size, output, and age.

It's been my work truck since fall '11. It still isn't 4x4, but it will be in a week to 10 years...
With a load of sand in the bed, and aggressive studded tires, it plows just fine. At least I didn't have any problems last year...
