Do I have remote start installed?
Hey FTE,
Traded in my 05 250 and got an 08 F350. It only came with a key, no Fob and I think it might have remote start already installed because when I go to turn the ignition, I can let it go and it will start and turn the engine over on its own. Do all '08's have this? Or is it equipped with remote start? I wanted to know because I noticed regular Fobs on sale at amazon for $10. But I would rather just buy the remote start one, if it has it already installed. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

Doesn't mean you have remote start.. sorry...
Do you have a key pad on exterior of driver's door; if so, you should be good to get the wireless key fobs. Some 04 were wired but in 04 they went to wireless; which an 08 would have. So if you have the key pad you are ready for FOB.
