My truck will sometimes not start like you're saying. But usually I can get it to crank right up if I take the key out and put the truck into park completely. I guess I'm not completely putting it into park whenever I stop the truck to get out.

A Bad Ground Wire could prevent your truck from starting when the Engine is Hot..

If your Truck don't start in a Cold Ambient Temp just replace the Intake Air Temperature Sensor..

The Ignition Key can only handle small amount of Amperes that's the reason why you can turn on the headlights with the ignition off.

Try turning the Fuel Pump Inertia Switch Off and Turn it On. Are you familiar of the sound when there is no fuel? If not disable the Ignition and Crank the Engine while Fuel Pump Switch is Off.
