Obviously you need to do something, lose the truck or spend more money. You said, “you had heads and gaskets put on, will the original shop do anything for you, maybe even some labor cost ? OR… start pulling things apart yourself, don’t clean anything, check out if and where the coolant is leaking in the cylinder. If the head gasket is bad, it should last longer than a year, check with the installer first, then to the manufacturer. This could take a long time so lay back and get a good ride.
