    Open the driver side door. It should be on the door or door case. Or on the front most left most corner of the dash.

    I’ll try tomorrow to get inside the cab. As I mentioned earlier the truck was auctioned off without keys and doors locked

    Many people hide a spare key .. battery box by fuel tank or hanging under cab in a accessible location are common spots.. they only have a dozen or so key patterns so if you do find vin dealership probably can sell you a key.

    Just get a locksmith. They’ll get you inside and make your keys while you wait. VIN tag in the door jamb.

    Call a tow company for a lockout, get your vin off the doorjamb and order keys.

    If the door is locked and the inside door handle is pulled will it unlock the door?

    The door should open if you pull the handle.
