Do you know someone else with a Ford remote? Or possibly you could take it to the dealer and if they have a remote laying around, they could try to put it in program mode with their remote. You would know then if it is a problem with your remote or the truck.

My local Ford dealer is fairly open and friendly when it comes to stuff like this.

If it's important to you, you will probably have to pay $75 or whatever it is now, to have the dealer hook their scanner to it and see what's happening.
