 Re: Usage of "..." at the end of a sentence
The usage of ellipsis when writing dialog is covered via the, "The only time it's advisable is when the bit you're quoting isn't grammatical when it's standing on its own: "When I was a boy . . ." — that sort of thing." portion of the pasted text on ellipsis usage rules.
You are not writing a complete sentence, therefore you use the ellipsis to indicate that something was left unsaid.
