You are correct...
And I have a suggestion for you while you're at the key place... have them cut you an old style Ford ignition key (the old all metal square one) so you can easily keep it in your wallet in case you lock your keys in your car.
And since you don't have PATS, you can also start the car with it...

Excellent idea, I had it done when I first got the car, and it has saved my a$$ multiple times.
