I have found quite a few different problems with the ignition lock cylinders in Ford trucks through the years. It always results in replacing the lock cylinder. One of the suspected causes are a big wad of keys on the key ring swinging and pulling down.

So as I insert the key about a half to 3/4 of an inch, I could sometimes tell that was unlocking the cylinder before the key was completely inserted. At that time, I could remove the key and continue to turn the ignition mechanism and it would start sans key.
My unit doesn't have 20,000 miles on it but I guess these issues can happen at any point.
