I am a 75 yr old widow with one daughter...I own a home a pickup....I am concerned that I do enough to keep it from being held up in probate.

If your home is owned by you individually, it would have to go through probate to be transferred.  Assuming your assets are not valued over $5,000,000, which would create tax complications, the simplest thing you could do is to transfer ownership of your assets from yourself individually, to yourself and your daughter (if that is who you want to leave it to) jointly with right of survivorship, or you could deed the house to her, reserving a life estate to yourself.
