So, seeing as there are so many horrible drivers here in California, I was thinking about getting an air or train horn . Does anybody on here have one on their truck? How much, and where did you get them from? Sound/video clips perhaps?

Thanks in advance!

i have a harbor freight air horn wired in took me about an hour not very loud with the cheap little compressor it comes with but fun and with a bigger compressor and tank could be much louder

Becca

does it have a pretty deep sound?

if you want horns check ebay or hornblasters, and get metal horns not plastic, i have a big rig horn on mine with a 5 gal harbor freight tank, i have to fill it myself but no big deal, also as far as big rig horns, if you want a deep tone you need baffles on the end of it, mine don't and are loud and obnoxious, kinda like an ambulance horn

Becca

what the hell is a baffle? lol

i wouldn't buy these cheap ones but the little cap on the end of the bell gives it that deeper sound, id get a vid up on here but my button isn't working right now, so either a wire has come undone or the solenoid valve is froze up

Well honey, a train horn sounds like a train horn. You want to scare the **** out of people, get a train horn. My cousin has one, 3 feet long mounted to the frame. Next time someone says "listen to my horn" I'll stand back a few extra feet.

yea i can hear the train at my house from 4 miles away, let alone on my truck, but authentic train horns are expensive as hell

Here is one I found online... I like the sound (listen to the sound clip), and it's not terribly expensive.

if u want to get a deep sound u need to get plastic horns. hornblasters has good prices.
