My truck started to idle roughly when at a stop sign. The check engine light came on and when it got into fourth gear, the whole truck started to vibrate. When I took it to the dealership, they told me that it might be a blown head gasket. Also, they said that the engine temp might have been too hot and could have warped one of the cylinder pistons. Any idea how much all this will cost me?
 
Check the plug wires. Sounds like one of them has worked loose.

Ignore the mechanic. If/when the light is on, take it to an Auto Zone if you have one nearby - they will give you the trouble code that will tell you what's wrong.
 
take it to an auto zone and get the code from your car. im pretty sure its a misfire. the same problem happen to my car awhile back. for me it was a bad fuel injector. price depends on what needs to be fix and where u go.
