MyKey BS
So I have a brand new 2018 XLT for work. My boss gave me both the keys it came with and certainly would not/did not set any restrictions. I want to turn all the ridiculous babysitter crap OFF. I don't know how to tell what key is the Admin key. I was given all the keys for the truck Both keys I try to use and go information display do not seem to grant access to the MyKey settings past just the first menu options that say "1 MyKey 2 Admin key". So I guess what I am asking is am I overlooking something and how can I confirm I actually have an admin key. As I said I was given all the keys. Doing my own searches on Google and YouTube just result in an ocean of irrelevant content.
I am not sure you need to do anything, but then I never read the manual on mykey. I am just guessing that all the BS crap is off by default. My other guess is that you would use mykey the first time to actually turn the BS crap on.
Not sure how to determine which key is the admin.

So what babysitter crap are you talking about? Maybe that will help us determine what you really want to do.
To find information on programmed MyKey(s), press the left arrow button to
access the main menu and scroll to:

MyKey Press the OK button.
Select one of the following:
Tracks the distance when drivers use a MyKey. The only way
to delete the accumulated distance is by using an admin key
to clear your MyKeys. If the distance does not accumulate as
expected, then the intended user is not using the MyKey, or
an admin key user recently cleared and then recreated a
MyKey.
