Monitor the coolant level in the overflow resevoir and the radiator. If ther coolant gets low it will run hot and/or overheat. Carry a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water in the truck at all times. Maybe 2 gallons would be safer than one. Never open up the radiator cap when the engine is hot as the expanded coolant will be under pressure and can burn you.
