Simple Problem

I just got back from a deployment and my Dad changed out the battery on my 06 F150.

He said it started up fine for him, but I tried and it powers up great but won't turn over. Everything electrical still works, but the engine doesn't even try to turn over.

Any help is appreciated!

First thing I'd do is have somebody hold the key in the start position and give the starter a little tap with something metal like a hammer or steel bar. It may have developed a dead spot from sitting. Stay safe and good luck.
