Think again. All they promised him was the keys to the truck. That won't do much for him without the truck and title , so they give him the promised keys.

Implied contract is for the entire truck, which any reasonable jury would award him.

That is what I was taught in law school. A gift, or bequest, of the keys to an automobile, or any locked container, is considered a gift, or bequest, of the automobile, or the container, and its contents. When claimant actually paid consideration for the keys, that rule is even more likely to apply.
