The first thing I would do is check the fuses with the key on.

Here is a guide to help and the fuse locations as well:

I would also check for 12 volts at the coil with the key on. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes.

Okay, not let's remove the distributor cap and crank the engine over to see if the rotor spins? If so, I would replace the ignition module which fail on these trucks, here is how, let me know.
