Eliminating the double honk
For the non Forscan users, I stumbled upon this product while looking for radio parts: https://www.4dtech.com/hornhonk/
It's a simple plug and play to eliminate the double honk, took 10 seconds to install. For me the double honk is a super annoying part of the current super duty trucks.

I can agree with that. Although I did buy a cheap Lenovo box just for FORscan, it's slower than slow and very maddening to a person who's strictly a Mac user in every other aspect of technology that I own.

If your truck is running and you leave the vehicle with the key you will get 2 very loud horn beeps. Early in the morning, middle of the night, etc.

And if I remember correctly, whenever I hit the lock button on the flip key twice.

I have an '18 6.2 XL and it usually only does this when you try to lock the doors with one or more not closed all the way. Interestingly, it also does it if the hood is open and you try to lock the doors. For those that have the double-honk happening, do you have remote start and/or push-button start?

You don't even need to buy a separate computer as long as your Mac is recent (i.e. Intel processor and possessing Bluetooth). Forscan works using WINE. Another way to do it for free is use VirtualBox (free) with a copy of Windows 10 downloaded from Microsoft (free). You don't even have to bother activating it (which would make it not-free).
