The truck has no problem turning over but it will not start in the morning unless I connect my battery charger to the battery. I have replaced the battery and that did not solved the problem.

check battery for condition including load test most places do for free. even if new they can still be bad. also, is it correct size for truck. then test for a parasitic draw.
