Batteries are connected in parallel so you only need to disconnect the one negative cable that goes to chassis ground. I use a disconnect switch like this. You just partially unscrew the green knob and it disconnects the battery.

True batteries are in parallel on our trucks (12V DC), but that does not mean that there is just one ground for both. I know this for sure on the Dodge with Cummins as each battery is grounded to the engine block, not sure how Ford grounds theirs.
