You need to ask the judge to enter the divorce decree. You may have to go to trial and let the judge determine the distribution of property, etc.

Is she entitled to any of my earnings while deployed?

As long as you're married to her you're under a mutual duty of support. Presumably you're drawing BAH at the married/with dependent rate, so the bare minimum the Air Force expects you to send her is the difference between the married/with dependent rate and the single rate. If your marital status is getting you more money than you're sending her, relax and bank the profit, and don't rock the boat too hard an argument could be made that you should be sending her the whole BAH since presumably you don't have any housing expense of your own while deployed. On the other hand, if she's actually costing you more money than she's gaining you, or for other reasons you're eager to get a divorce or annulment, you don't have to be on the ground in Texas to file and get the 60-day clock turning.

I paid over half the down payment but didn’t register the truck in Texas until after we were married, is it considered both of ours?

Ownership will be based on who paid what percentage of the down payment - that will be separate property. I suggest you hire a lawyer.
