Question
my alarm randomly sets its self off without any outside disturbance.  the horn blasts are irregular and not in a consistent rhythm like normal. it a 2006 F-250 with keyless entry and the keypad on the door

Answer
Very odd as these alarms (OEM-FACTORY) depend on battery drain detection.
This is usually from an open light circuit are a bad battery.

I would take it to a local Ford shop for an evaluation.
Since this is they're system, they're diagnostic will
confirm the trouble sensor and repair may be possible.

Try that and let me know what they discover.

Luck.
