Nancy, I have been running a pickup with 2 batteries since the early 80s, when I was Irrigating on the High Plains, Would have to be able to pull up to a Irrigation well, Big DSL Tractor, or Semi, No matter the temperature and bust it off with no help from anyone else. So two Batts were a necessity. I just replace one of mine on my 01 F350, DSL late fall, I thought I had a Glow plug, or Glow plug Relay go bad It was just the LH Batt dieing. Your pickup shouldn't loose much charge as long as you are running it pretty regular, 1 or 2 / week, If you go longer there is where things get tricky. It might be that one of the Batts have started taking a nose dive since you had them checked. Possibly! or you have a drain that you are not aware of. A permanently mounted Waterproof Battery Tender might be just the ticket to keep everything in order. I hope this helps! IMO there is nothing more aggravating than Battery trouble, Y'all take care! Later, John A.
