Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

ok here is my question: in feb of 2010 i sold a pickup truck to a friend whose car broke down and she needed a way to get her kids to the dr's and to go to the store. i printed out an agreement where she would pay me 100.00 per month for 15 months. we went to the tag office and i told her that i would sign the title and not put the amount she was paying so she would not have to pay tax on it an she would agree to the payments and sign the agreement. she signed it and we transfered the title. she paid me 100.00 and then later told me she could not afford the 100.00 per month, i redid the agreement and droped the amount of the payments to 50.00 per month. she still has not paid me any more money. i have been told that because i signed the title to her that i cant sue her in court for the money or the return of the truck to me. however i have been told that i can put a lein on the truck until she pays it off and that if she still fails to pay me then i can take the truck back. is this true? or do i have any legal recourse at all?
