Fixed it for ya.

Let the truck go to auction and buy something with a Cummins, No glow plug bull, no fussin'. Crank/start/drive, no matter what the temps. Smoke is normal on any diesel, Ford/IH PowerStrokes smoke more than normal due to them taking an eternity to fire. Lots of wasted fuel. It is also a 'light duty' diesel, designed for the light duty Ford/IH truck line-up. Cummins is straight up industrial, some of the engines just happen to end up in trucks.
