I had my F350 stolen from my driveway June 17,2015. I was lucky that it was recovered 2 days later. The thieves were using it to steal other stuff and got it stuck.

I have since installed a Cyclops Anti Theft device. Basically it is a relay and two key fobs. If the button on the fob isn't pressed the truck won't fire. It will just crank and crank. Thieves will move on rather than try to diagnose it. Here it a link the their web site. I am not affiliated with them, just a satisfied customer.

Ford didn't put chips in the keys until 2008 on the Super Duties. The police told me the SD was one of the easiest vehicles to steal. Thieves may break-in but they won't be taking my truck.(Hopefully)

That's exactly what I did. Went to the Ford forums to see what everybody else was using. Only one guy on there mentioned this product, said this had just come on the market. So I took a look at it and thought why not try it,the price was right, and it sounded easy to do. Shipped it to me in four days, took five minutes to install it, just pop out the OEM starter relay and pop the new one in, your done. Truck will not start without fob. And yes I'm a satisfied customer also.

Larry, they have great customer service too. I had a friend buy one after I got mine. We couldn't figure out which relay to replace so I called them on a Saturday. Got voice mail left a message and the dude called me back about an hour later and helped us out.

Also I had a problem with mine. I emailed them and they had me send the whole thing back and sent me another one, no questions asked. Again, I am just a satisfied customer. :)
