Hi, I'm a newbee!
Thanks guys!! I did take the truck back to the dealer, and he checked the code and it was 499 (evap system). I tried to stay calm ( that was hard to do). He assured me they changed the part? He reset the code and said if it comes back, they'll fix it for free. Boy do I hate working with dealers!! I'm going to get my own code reader. They really think people are stupid!! I've been working on my own cars for 40 yrs. Thanks again for your help..

I picked up this little reader http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EVYGQY and it was the best $50 I spent.
I brought it to check out a code on my wifes Expedition and it saved me a good little chunk of change since I resolved the code by replacing the PCV valve and an airfilter.
Also I have used it on 2 of my buddies car/truck since I got it. I ended up with a 12 pack of Fat Tire and a nice bottle of wine
Good luck
