for the past 2 days i have driving the truck and out of the blue it died on me gong down the road and takes 30 minutes for it to start back up well i noticed the battery charge on the dashboard and it was reading low so i took the battery back to the auto parts store and exchanged it also (i do have a new alternator and new battery connections on it) so got a new battery cause might had a dead cell only had it two months so bout to goto work and it dies on me again and its still reading low could it be voltage regulator that's bad thanks yall
 
Does it start and die or does it just not start after sitting? Big difference. If the later use an amp probe pull the fuse for the radio and see what is drawing the battery down. And then use you volt meter to check to see if the battery has a good charge sitting and if it is charging. Ask a friend with a like truck to compare your readings to if you do not know what they should be.
