Re: Losing coolant
You'll need to measure the temp with an IR gun or some other device. Everyones feel is different, scalding to you may be warm to someone else. Don't trust the gage until you verify "normal" for your truck. Keep you eye on the level for several heat cycles. If it's continues to eat coolant further diagnostics will be necessary.

Re: Losing coolant
I had a similar problem years ago. After replacing the water pump, hoses, thermostat. Turned out to be a bad cap. I still have the "new" one I replaced the bad one with 30 years ago.
