My truck was leaking anti-freeze and the ford dealership told me there was nothing wrong with it.
I picked it up and there was black and white smoke coming out of the muffler. The truck stopped on me and it overheated. Now when you try and start it it shakes and smokes really badly. There is also something leaking from the muffler. Whats wrong with it?

Sounds like you blew a head gasket or the head cracked allowing coolant to enter the combustion chamber giving off the smoke and the liquid coming out the pipe is most likely engine coolant. Check around under the hood and look for any areas that look wet like the fender wells, firewall, ect. Check the oil for its condition. When oil mixes with coolant it turns milky brown. If you see coolant all under the hood you probaly blew a head gasket. As for the smokeing and shaking, there is probaly severe angine damage.
