I've never seen a locksmith who could reproduce a key with a transponder in it. I have a '90 Camaro with one and I lost the key and had to go to a Chevy dealer, who in turn had to order one from the factory. We called every place in the yellow pages that looked like they might be able to and none could, but I do live in a pretty small place so that might just be where I am...
And about the universal keys, Ford keys from the same year open each other, or something like that. I locked the keys in my truck ('03 F150) while hunting one time and a friend opened my door with his key from a '0-something Explorer...I don't know the exact details on which keys work with what, but if I remember right his words were "These Ford keys are all alike." That's probably not right (surely not, right?), but it did work between those two...
