[QUOTE="Traxxis, post: 2351365, member: 8980"] There's some real dumba$$ answers in here... sadly, only a few of them are actually jokes. As for the OP, your truck has a PATS system, so unless you have had it bypassed, which is quite unlikely, making a key is more involved than running to Lowes and having a copy made. So take the keys with you... done. If he has a copy that isn't programmed, it will just unlock the doors, nothing else.... the motor will just crank but won't fire. The inertia switch is easy to access, but I don't recall if there is a way to manually trip it... and even if there is, if he has a key that is programmed to the truck, all he has to do is google "why won't my xxxxx start" and will likely find the inertia reset pretty quick. Just take the keys with you. Done. Lock thread. [/QUOTE]
