Blue smoke all the time.

2004 F250 6.0PSD
I start my truck in the morning, it runs for a minimum of ten minutes before I drive it to work. When I leave my house in the morning I can see a big cloud of blue smoke in the rear view mirror for the next 10 to 30 minutes. I shut it off, it sits for a bit, I start it up and the same thing happens all over again. I let it cool down ten minute before I shut it off. The blue smoke hasen't gone away yet, it is still lingering and a strong smell of diesel is in the air. Has anybody had this problem??? For those who remember me, I think I bought a really expensive lemon. The dealer doesn't seem to know what is going on.... Anybody???

Thanks..

Sounds very much like a bad injector to me...keep an eye on the oil level, and get that thing in SOON- personally, I wouldn't drive it.

Keep us posted- but take it in SOON, preferably have it towed.
