i know that the ignition in this ford has an ignition key that is chipped. I gave the truck to my son for his birthday. the problem is he has lost five keys now. at 65 bucks a pop i could just, well scream. anyway i'm sure there must be a way to by pass the chip. my email is lytlelane@gmail.com if anyone knows the proceduers to do this could you please email and we can talk about it. thank you george
