I've herd and read white smoke is normal for a cold diesel.
Just wanted to see if thats normal or something I should be concerned about.
It was about 5 deg out.

Was your engine cold or warmed up at that point? White "smoke" is usually water vapor. When the conditions are right, any engine will make it. Bluish white smoke is unburnt fuel and can happen normally when the engine is really cold.
Either way, that doesn't look out of the ordinary at all to me.

Truck looks normal to me, cold weather hot exhaust.
