Hidden keys

[Artinaudio]

Hello everyone.
This is my first post as I am new here & new to these trucks. So I purchased my first truck in this generation a year ago its 94 single cab and as I was working underneath it i noticed cap plug on frame, I removed it and to my surprise I found a set of OEM keys, I didnt think much about it at the time other than it made for a clever hiding spot for spares but to my surprise I recently purchased a 95 extended Cab & low and behold found a set of keys in same location. I'm curious has anyone else experienced this? The only similarities of these two trucks i can verify is that they were both originally sold new as fleet vehicles.

Neither had I, that's why I reached out to the forum, I contemplated not mentioning it because if it resulted in someones truck being stolen well I'd hate that. I do know this my truck(s) were both sold new as fleet vehicles, both came from same dealership & both did have spare keys (set in a waxy substance) attached to small cord inside the frame.

That's so they could easily repossess them when the buyer defaults

Sounds about right ^

That makes sense, because how else would the owner know to look there.
