Hot antifreeze smell

Well ever since about Moab on the way home when I would shut the truck off and walk in front of it I could smell hot antifreeze. My tank was staying full at that point so yesterday I took it to the dealer to have it pressure tested. Right away they saw water coming out the middle of the radiator. If...
