We normally don't tell people how to steel a car, take the vin # and go to a dealership and get a new key. You'll have to prove ownership.

I didnt steal the car, i bought it as i stated in my question. Its just really expensive for a new key.
Then your friend owes you a key.
The anti theft system on the car requires 2 programmed keys. Ford does not keep key codes on file for vehicles over 10 years. Your best bet is finding a real locksmith (not pop a lock type) that can come to the car and cut the keys and program them. When you call them ask if they have experience doing this and if they have some kind of certification.

I did its just expensive so i was trying to figure out a way to get around it but looks like im just gonna have to wait it out till i get the money. Thank you.
You will have to spend the money. Most lock smiths can not accomplish this task. You may end up at the dealership anyway. The anti-theft is really difficult to bypass for a reason. Think about it....
My Lincoln just died and now it won't start it's getting fuel but it just turns over and turns over
Go to the dealership I just replaced my EMC and had to get the keys programmed and yes on fords you have to have 2 don’t make my mistake calling a locksmith they will say they can do it and will cut your keys but they can’t program them without the proper tools
