Yes, that is correct. These keys don't have a chip. They are just a regular key. Passlock is a box on the lock cylinder in the steering column I think. I didn't have it, and I'm glad I don't. I do have a Viper alarm with keyless entry but no remote start. The keyless entry is a real nice option. I use that every time I get in it and out of my truck.
I hope I don't have it. I guess the only way to tell is to rip the covers off and check huh? Man. Your Trucks so nice. I kinda wish I waited and didn't impulse this one for one that wasn't 26' off the ground lol

The first thing I asked the guys at my job was "how to I lower it back to stock" and they said "spend more many than what you bought the truck for. "

Thanks. I have had my truck for 19 years. As for passlock, when you first start your truck, do you have a security light that flashes? If so, you have passlock, if not, then no passlock. The first year for passlock was 97, but not all 97s have it. It can be programmed out of the ECM if you do have it. That takes a custom tune though.

Is it a little red domed light? Like they give on after market alarms? If so, I don't have that. I did notice my abs light stays on for like a half mile then goes away.

No, it's in the dash. Like the SRS light kind of. It says security. I think it's yellow. I don't have it, so I'm not real sure. If you had it, it flashes when you turn the key onI think, kind of like the air bag ( SRS ) lite does.
