Check the diverter valve under the hood.They are usually vaccum operated so check to see if you are getting vaccum on the line when the heat is turned on.If you have vaccum try taking the valve out and splicing the lines together.If that gets you heat head to the parts store,they are usually cheap to replace.

Did the heater ever work? Did it stop suddenly or gradually? Did it happen over summer time? It could be your heat core is pluged. Just back flush it.
maybe the heater core just went no mas?

is the inside of your truck getting wet on the floor boards?? or is the truck getting very hot. if neither of those then see if leaking outside in the engine compartment and that no hoses are pinched. it could be heater core or something really basic. it maybe something i haven't even thought of
