For some reason my Low Coolant light keeps coming on and I've checked the fluids and they look ok. Any thoughts?

I had the same problem as you but within a couple of weeks my water pump failed, leaked noticably through the weep at the bottom of the water pump! The level didn't really look low or anything but it was just enough to turn the light on, get under your truck and look at the bottom side of your pump and see if it's leaking at the weep hole

Yep, good call. This was the issue and it got real bad. I went yesterday and bought a new pump and my father-in-law is putting it on for me today while I'm at work. Thanks for the help all!
