I'm gonna go with a bad water pump or bad pump gasket. On my '04 Ram, first pump lasted until 175,000mi, second pump leaked slowly around the gasket and just got replaced at 230,000mi. Also, the truck thermostat housing is known to seep, especially in colder weather.

I know they are different for the cars, but, I would look there rather than head gasket.
