I had to give up, I need my truck running so I took it to the shop this morning. Ill keep you guys updated as to what it was. Thanks for all the help, I learned alot!!!

 

I'm confused on my truck, the coolant dipstick puts the "full" level like halfway up the radiator. It doesn't have an overflow tank, just an unregulated atmospheric vent at the top next to the dipstick. Did something get changed?
