Also, I don't know if I'm the only one that this has happened to or not but my truck does not seem to hold the coolant for very long at all like it has a leak and I'm not for sure whether it is somewhere in the hoses or if it is going somewhere else. I hope that there is something causing it that isn't too bad. Anyways I was just needing some advice with that too.

 

is your coolant reservoir discolored?

check the water pump as well, its on the right side of the harmonic balancer, it has no belt on it.
