White smoke at any time other than when you are using higher sulfur fuel, as in Mexico, is a reason to take the truck to the dealer for service.

If the white smoke appears under hard acceleration, in a 2011 model year, it is possible that you have a faulty injector in the downpipe. It is my understanding that there were a very small number of faulty injectors putting too much fuel into the exhaust early in the 2011 model year.

White 'smoke' when cold is probably just water vapour.
