I have seen these too not sure of the cost but I don't think that they are cheep. Another idea if you aren't apposed to mounting another 6 volt battery would be to use a Ford starter solenoid and wire the batteries parallel so they both charge and provide 6 volts to the truck and use the ford solenoid to switch the stating circuit to series for 12 volt to the starter. This is what the big trucks do with either 4 6V batteries or two 12 volt batteries to run the truck with 12 volts and the starting system with 24 volts. The duel battery system would Shirley never leave you stranded.
