May have lost my only truck key. It is a 2009 F150. Plan on calling dealership as soon as they open. I understand certain autolocksmiths are also capable of making new keys.

Any ideas on what this will run me? Will I have to get towed to the dealer?

I was told it cost $40 for a new key if it has all the electronic shite housed in the key itself. Probably charge you more to reprogram the truck to match the new keys electronics tho

In 2010 I lost the keys to a 2000 ranger. It costed me $120 to get pop a lock to make me a new key (and program it). I was out of town at the time so I was just shite out of luck, didn't have any other options.

Can't help with the cost estimate but I did want to say I purchased a tile just for this. I can Bluetooth from my phone to track my keys or use the tile on my Keychain to signal my phone if it's lost. Also have one on my bike and want to install one on my chainsaw. The batteries are good for about a year. Just wanted to pass this on in case anyone wasn't familiar with Tile.

My pops works at a ford dealership. They have to have two keys in order to program any. A key with a fob runs about $150 programmed. So if you have no keys, you have to tow to the dealership and then they will give you two keys for around $300.
