Umm...no they shouldn't glow at all times. The dirtbike should do it because it's typically run at high power.

But a truck engine, with the exception of a diesel or HEAVILY driven gas engine (such as a towing application), should not glow under normal conditions.

Just be easy with that freezing water on the glowing manifolds. Think hot glass into freezing water and you'll see why I say that.
