I ran the truck around the neighborhood then checked the fluid - it shows perfectly at full. And after driving it 3 times, still not a hint of a leak anymore.

At least a quart had leaked out so it must have been over full since I bought it 2 months ago. I checked the fluid at the time and it was slightly over, but I was mainly checking for smell & color at that time.

Of course, now that the leak is gone I find that my reverse lights, rear running lights, and brake lights have all suddenly gone out :-(
