If the truck really is an around-the-yard type vehicle, have the rod resized and reinstall it. It sucks big-time to pull a boner like this. I know, I do it regularly.

If you aren't ready to drop a lot of money into the engine right now, don't. Spend a little money and time on machining the rod, get the truck back up and running, and redo the engine if/when you decide to. No sense spending lots of money on a truck you only use a little bit.

Good luck, and take it easy on yourself. We have your back here.
