When I first start it up either in the morning or when i havent drove it for a while it will smoke quite a bit. It doesnt smoke to bad terribly bad when im just driving but if i get on it then i can see a lot of smoke in the mirror.

Valve seals, probably rings too.

I dont think its oil thats coming out of the exhaust... It feels like its just like a chalky substance, like carbon or something mixed with some kind of fluid. It doesnt smell like oil.

Its tempting...

As for the coolant, I did just go check to see because someone else mentioned that. It is lower on coolant. It was just full about a week or so ago because I had my oil changed.

Does this mean something?

If its coolant you shouldn't see blue smoke and your exhaust would smell sweet. Blue smoke is oil, and the fact that its bad at startup makes me think valve seals.
