Take a look at your local dealer, you might get lucky. It’s that time of year, some are willing to move some batteries. That is on sale for $99 CAD

Replaced the passenger side battery and it starts fine, both remotely and normally with a key in the ignition.
The other battery, on the driver's side seem to be OK, so I'll wait with replacement.
Thank you all for suggestions,

The strange thing is that the truck was starting perfectly fine when using remote start, but needed a few clicks when attempted to start normally, using a key in the ignition. Perhaps the remote start is using the other battery?
After changing the passenger side battery, everything is back to normal.

This happened to me 3 weeks ago. Replaced the drivers side (showing red) pass side was green. Replaced the passenger side now it starts like brand new. Replace both together to save yourself another trip.
