Shops local to me wanted between $60 and $100 to test. I picked up one of the $40 recharge kits at AutoZone a month ago and mine is still blowing nice and cold.

If a low refrigerant charge is the problem, a recharge may help out a little but that is not fixing the leak. That **** doesn't just disappear. You should figure out where it is going before you recharge it.

Is the ac compressor kicking on? I bought a recharge kit and the clutch wasn't engaged even with ac on max. The wires on the compressor was loosing contact, so I fiddled with zip ties until I stayed on while I flicked it. Just something g to check that's free.

I had that problem in my 2004 a few weeks ago. Turned out to be the condenser fan motor was out. Turn your truck on, turn on the a/c, and look under the hood to see if the condenser fan is spinning. If it is, then check your freon, then your compressor. That's cheapest to most expensive order.
