As far as Truck leak, you looked under the Foam pads under the Carpet?
When my tank went, carpet was dry. The coolant that got to the trunk floor, under the foam pads, found any hole and dripped out.
Have you taken the plastic cover off the Expansion tank. This exposes the Purge valve. There is a drain hole between the purge valve and Fill. This hole connects to the overflow tube that drains down just in front of right rear tire.
Look for signs of dried or leaking coolant. The purge values can go bad as well. Though these typically lead more to condensation on the trunk lid, not a gallon + loss.
Take out carpet and foam pads, expansion tank cover plate refill you system with distilled water and get car up to temp to see what's going on
