no start

I have the same problem with my 06 quad slt. i bought 2 new gold autozone batteries about 6 months ago. drove the truck home the other weekend and parked in the garage on thursday with no problems. sunday when i wanted to start it the voltmeter was just above 11 and nothing would turn, not even a click even though i had the dashboard lights coming on less flashy then usual. i have to figure out what is going on this weekend. i'll let you know my outcome.

Sounds like the starter contacts are about gone. Some searching here will get you lots of info on replacing the contacts yourself and save some $$.
