There is a clutch master cylinder, not to be confused with brake master cylinder, I couldn't find a image of one on a truck

Look for a small plastic container about 1 inch in diameter located close to the back of the engine, usually near the brake fluid reservoir. It looks a lot like the brake fluid reservoir but it's smaller. Imagine that the clutch pedal went straight through into the engine compartment: this is where you'll find the clutch master cylinder and clutch reservoir. Check the fluid level. The reservoir is usually clear with a small round rubber cap on the top; it should be filled to the top. Add brake fluid if it's low.

I learned that brake and clutch fluid is the same. That is, the same fluid is used as both brake fluid and clutch fluid

Absolutely not, you cannot use transmission fluid in place of brake fluid.
