He said he replaced the battery and solinoid. Try tapping on the starter while someone tries to crank the truck. It sounds like it's sticking. If it's gotten cold where you live that's most likely the case, older starters stick when cold. Let us know how it goes. Good Luck.

yes, he may have replaced the battery, but ive ran into several "new" defective batteries. and i misread that he said that he replaced the relay.
