My two cents. It will probably be better to keep the Dodge. Any vehicle can have unexpected problems. It's like a cheetah chasing a gazelle. He keeps his eyes on one. No matter where the others are. If he jumps from one to the other he goes hungry and expends a lot of energy. It's a knife fight. But I think the Dodge is probably the best truck.

Why though? its just hard to figure it out.. i mean the dodge has way more rust and more body damage than the loaner truck i have, and more miles.. its hard decision haha.

Probably a broken spring. You can fix it yourself and save yourself a ton of cash. I changed my broken spring a month ago. Pain in the ass but did it on the head without having to pull it. Better to just keep fixing it. Sooner or later everything will be replaced. Then you know what you got.

But the thing is, will a broken spring cause the truck to blow out white smoke from the tailpipe. ALso, where would my coolant be going? i thought those are signs of a head gasket issue
