Just putting this upfront, I know just about nothing about cars so bear with me. I have had the truck for about 6 months (i got it from my dad last summer who took pretty good care of it) and nothing has really gone wrong with it since then. Just recently I was driving home from school (about a ten minute drive) and when I got home, I hear sizzeling coming from the truck and I smelled something burning I think. I lifted the hood, not knowing what to look for, and I felf quite a bit of heat coming from the engine, I think. So I think that it is overheating, but I'm not really sure what to do. I dont want to bring it in to a garage and being charged an arm and a leg for something simple I might be able to do at home, but Im afraid to drive with it like this. And if this helps at all, I am due for an oil change, I am probably about 400 miles over the 3000 mile mark. I dont know if that matters, but I am getting that done very soon, but I figured Id throw that out there incase that could mean anything.
