I have tried to move the steering wheel, it turns, but truck will not move out of park.
Broken pitman arm or rack and pinion went out

If, by chance, your truck is parked with one or both front tires against a curb (or similar), try the "steering wheel thing" again, and bring a friend - you will have to turn VERY hard to release the shifter.
just a thought - good luck

most likely your brake switch is out. If you had a scanner you would be able to see if the computer see's you pressing on the pedal. Or if you know how to test you could check to see if it switches ( completes the circuit ).

Make sure you have brake lamps. The shift interlock solenoid is powered by the brake lamp switch.
