Exclamation Anti theft HELP

Looking to make it a bit harder for the "deplorables" to steal my truck. What are some of the easiest ways to do this ?
How about something to keep it from starting / electrical
Or something to shut the fuel off / mechanical

You could pull a fuse or relay in the fuse box under the hood. Starter relay or fuel pump relay or PCM power relay......but you would have to replace them for you to start the truck....Maybe install a Bosch 30 amp relay to cut power to the fuel pump with a switch hidden in the cab.

But even if you disable your truck, if they want it bad enough, they will tow it for free....

Here are the fuse block under the hood the fuel pump circuit. You didn't say what year your truck is but the should be similar or same even if your truck is newer than a 2016.

These are for the 2011-2016 fuses and fuel pump, so you can pick and choose if you want to go the relay/fuse route.

Don’t cut the fuel. Bad idea to starve a CP4 of fuel

It's a pain to pull fuses. It needs to be easier than that. You can't cut power to the entire truck because the computer will reset and the truck will have to relearn stuff. You don't want to lift the hood every time ether. A ,simple on off button hidden in the consol or under the dash where you need to know where it is. Just something in the wire that goes to the starter relay.
