in many states (including mine) leaving your vehicle running to run in and grab some coffee is illegal, for emissions and insurance lobbying reasons.
It some parts of my town if you jump out, and leave it running, you'll never have to worry about those two honks again. Your Bronco will be so far away Superman wouldn't be able to hear them. :)

BTW, I do understand how aggravating that can be. My GM plastic car, and the wife's Mustang do the same beeping crap. If it wasn't for the mindless that can't remember to turn their vehicles off, we wouldn't have that wonderful feature on our rides.

This. Where I grew up, if it isn’t nailed down or secured, will be taken.

I hate the double honk and it has the ability to offend people that don't realize what it is. I've already had to explain that it wasn't me feeling the need to lock the doors.

And not too smart either. Thieves scope out 7-Elevens specifically for that purpose.

Any car could be stolen in seconds. I’ll take the chance I live in a super safe area. I would rather come back to a nice warm car

You know how you discourage a thief taking your running rig? Just leave the kids belted in, aint nobody want to deal with kiddos. just kidding. I dont even want to leave it running for long periods of time, Im talking like I pull out of the garage and have to run in to get the37538964th thing my kids forgot, or a water bottle, or hell just to open the passenger door for my wife an--HONK HONK christ almighty it gets me every god damn time. I know loads of people have said this can be dealt with via Forscan, but can I do with with my plain jane OBD2 scanner too?

And the never ending seatbelt chime. I’m not belting in backing up to a trailer.
Ford provides instructions for turning off the seatbelt minder chime in the Owners manual. The instructions are the same for a Ford truck and the Bronco. Here are the instructions from my Lightning which I used on both my Lightning and my Bronco.
