A locked car does not stop a determined thief.BRILLIANT!
I almost gave an old lady a heart attack! Stopped to load furniture at a store, and she was entering the store. Scared the crap out of both of us!
Real intelligent Ford.
Thanks for the tip!
Can you name a single state where it is illegal (with a reference)?That's illegal in a lot of states to reduce auto theft. A lot of cars get stolen when people warm them up in the morning before work.
It illegal here in Colorado. More specifically in Denver; it's calling the "No Puffing" law....about leaving the key in the vehicle.

Since I have the numeric keypad, I lock the doors even when the key is in it. I can't remember if I get the double honk when it's running at that point or not, but I definitely do if I hit the lock button and just shut the door as opposed to closing the door and hitting the two keys on the keypad to lock it.

Some laws on the books in Idaho...Another reason to dislike Colorado! (Just kidding)
So if you want to warm it up enough to not have a frosted over windshield, you have to sit in it for five minutes until it warms up enough? When it's zero degrees out, and the Bronco has sat outside all night, it needs a few minutes early in the morning before I can see clearly enough to drive safely. I can't imagine Idaho passing a law like that.
wtf this is the dumbest and most annoying thing everLeave one key fob inside and lock with the other until you come back. Other than disabling with Forscan that's the only way.
True however the foreign cars, such as Toyota and Subaru, use a much more agreeable electronic tone and not the main horn blaring.The actual reason for the double honk is because once “ push button” start systems became the norm, folks not used to this were getting out of their vehicles and not realizing it was still running. I realize that sounds crazy, however elderly folks especially were subject to leaving their vehicles while running. Once us geezers die off……..well.
