Unhappy Smoke!!!!!!

My x is running weird on me now. I was at McDonalds at the drive through and just sitting there, and the x pushes out tons of exhaust smoke, like a whole lot. Is there something wrong with my car?

Unhappy

Sounds coolant related to me.
Coming from exhaust pipe - gotta be a head gasket.

That's why I ask. Check your oil to see if it has a 'chocolate milk' look. If it does, it is probably coolant in your oil.
