How's the rod look? Or did the piston just crack? Are they for certain it hydro locked from water in the intercooler?

Covered under warranty I would imagine. Is the dealership at least giving you a good vehicle to drive until you get your truck back?

This can happen with ANY engine... In your case it could be coolant that could leak in and hydrolock and destroy an engine.
