The truck is losing all the water out of the radiator overnight. No water in the oil, or on the ground under neth the truck. The water pump is not leaking around the seal. But everymornig before you start it you have to put water in it.
I can't figure out what is the problem

Hi wrightA and welcome to 2carpros

If its not actually leaking could be burning up in the combustion chamber Get it block or pressure tested to find out. Do you see white smoke any time you're driving or at an idle or the temperature gauge acting weird?

Yes I have seen white smoke while I am driving and the truck is idleing. It is barely visiable, though.
