When you crank a truck up in the morning and its cold so it blows out the white smoke looking stuff but its not smoke and still continues after its warmed up what's the problem? Coolant in oil. Cracked head , blown head gasket or cracked intake gasket.

you are burning coolant. it happens from overheating. the heads will have to come off to determine the extent of the damage
