Need Help Wont Start

05 stock. Fuel filter replaced 2000miles ago. Today stopped at my parents and my father tried starting. I thikn he mashed the pedal as he did. Well it wont start now. Tried letting it sit and couple hours...Noticed when trying the the only gauges that move when trying to start are the tach and speedo. Fuel gauge needed etc never moves. Tried adding 10gal fuel and still nothing. The low fuel light still comes on (I know it wasnt empty) Turns over and jumps and rattles but never fires. Seems like no fuel getting up. But with the gauges not working either I am clueless. Any help before I have it towed? Thanks

I would try disconnecting the batteries for about 15 minutes and then reconnect. Also open the water drain on the fuel filter housing and then turn the ignition switch to the ON position, if fuel starts pouring out at least we know the fuel pump is working.
