Truck ran fine till it ran out of gas, after adding fuel it won't start.
Does running out of gas cause component failure?
I've tried turning the key to just before start and waited for fuel pressure to come up and still no luck.
I've checked the fuses that I thought would pertain to fuel system and all is good.
Not certain what to do next.

I bet the pump went bad. Have you checked fuel pump pressure? That is where I would start. I bet you will find that it is either really low or no pressure at all. Check that and let me know what you find.
