Available at most sporting goods stores and your local Wal-Mart...

Reminds me of a friend that used to drive one of those little tiny Honda CVCC's, He mounted twin 20" Air Horns under the hood...  Sounded like the Freight Train from Hell!  Never had a problem getting someone's attention.

I am actually in proccess of spec'ing out my new airhorn system for my F-150.
This time I am going with a 10 gallon tank, and DUAL 37'' Freightliner horns from work, which will each be hit with 175psi  ;D

Cut me off now #$%* !!!

little rich "tourist town" up the road washed out friday. ;D

I'd love to hook up train horns. Truck horns would startle them, but a train horn would definitely make 'em mess their britches! "Holy crap! Look out!!!!!"  :o :o ;D

I have a buddy who has two train horns on his 2002 Suburban 2500.
He likes to go down rural roads near train tracks and point the horns towards peoples houses at night.
I have never witnessed his act, but he said more than a few times people have ran from their houses thinking a trail had
jumped the tracks..

I will stick to the airhorns for "deserving" commuters...

Used to live in Westwood, California, which is kind of an upscale New York City, at least as far as attitude and driving is concerned. Everyone is in an SUV and on the phone, and each individual driver probably honks the horn an average of every few minutes. Which, with ten or twenty thousand drivers, kind of adds up. And they have no problem using those horns on pedestrians. Being as I used to walk around in the "village" (downtown shopping/restaurant area) just about every day, that got on my nerves pretty quick.

"Returning fire" with a pocket air horn was one of the most satisfying activites I have ever undertaken -- especialy when the driver's side window was down.

BTW, the people behind that "hornblasters.com" place are serious A-holes.

               Hey duster, This is alittle off the subject but, I had to tell you about something. In the sports
      section of our Sunday paper, starting with this edition, they are highlighting local race events. This
      one is about a Drag Strip in Sallisaw, Oklahoma ans right smack dab in the middle of the page is a
      "Plymouth Duster"or a "Dodge Dart"! It's about a 74' I believe, I'm just not sure which one it is.
      When I saw it though, I thought of you. Well, that's it. Later on, Bill
