Default Starting Problem ?

A month or so ago, my truck started starting slowly (cranking). Now it is almost non-existent and barely starts. When it is started and running everything is good though. I bought two new batteries, and had the starter tested (good) and the alternator tested (good). But it still does this and it is at the point where it almost will not start.

Any help?

make sure all connections batter cables to and from starter alternator are cleaned very well with wire brush and are all tight when batteries are fully charger test them with a battery tester you could have a bad battery.

Cool I'll do that but I literally just bought two new Duralast Gold batteries today and it is still doing the same thing...
