Knocking

For about a week now, my engine has been knocking right after startup, my mechanic speculated it was most likely the rocker arms and just put some Lucas in it and basically said wait for it to die and put a new engine in it, or sell your truck.. It's really discouraging consitering this is my first car/truck ever and I've only had it a few months.. So is this a tipical problem or could it be something else?

Usually Hydraulic lifters, you can replace they and verfy rockers for wear.
