I was driving on the freeway and all of a sudden my check guage light came on and it looked like the car was starting to over heat, slowly the truck started to shut off. When I got out there was a big puddle of oil all over the ground. I tried to restart the truck and it wanted to start but did not and I think it was due to the oil. 2 weeks prior to that I got my oil changed and transmission flushed. Well I havent had a chance to have someone look at it but while it was sitting in the drive way there was a like clay colored liquid on the ground also when I got my oil changed the guy said it was time for a radiator flush but I didnt have the money to get it what do you think is wrong do you think that is what has caused the car to stop working what is a solution?

First off you need to find out why the oil was all over the ground. Have you pulled the oil dip stick and checked to see if the oil is up to level? If not start there. Let me know what you find.
