According to this site, most Fords (including your 2008 F-150) use a chipped key which operates an e-PATS system in your truck. This will most likely take a professional locksmith or taking it to the dealer to get it programmed, though. Without a programmed key in your possession, the key will need other means to get the truck to recognize it.
