White smoke, not at start up though.

I have about 900 miles on an 06 Quad Cab 4x4, Totally stock. Ive noticed at night, when leaving the parking lot at work, When i accelerate slightly hard i see a thin fog of smoke in the drivers headlights behind me.

The outside temps have been anywhere from the 40's to the 70's at night, and when the enigine warms up to normal, I dont notice as much smoke if any. Does this sound like cause for concern?

Sounds pretty normal to me, at night in the headlights behind me I can really throw the smoke if I get on it...my 04.5 threw more than my 06 does though.
