A few things can cause this type of problem. If the thermostat is the problem, you will know by paying attention to the temperature gauge. If the engine never warms up properly, then chances are it is the t-stat. If the truck engine warms up normally and in a reasonable amount of time, chances are the t-stat is fine. Also, make sure the coolant level is full.
Check those two things and let me know what you find. If they are okay, we will move on to a couple simple tests.
