You'll probably get more answers if you post in the Super Duty forum.

Super Duty & Heavy Duty - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

As far as I know, the Passive Anti-Theft System, also known as PATS, or the chipped keys, was not an option on any F series truck prior to 2008. So whoever told you that you need chipped keys is full of it.
