I apologize in advance, since I will likely be crucified here......

What is the fascination with sounding like a train in a pickup truck?

I can certainly understand how kids enjoy this but really?
I won't even bother with this one.

From my perspective, it's a legit question, with legit answers:
1. Trailering, and you see a bad situation developing. The louder your horns, the earlier you can effectively get another drivers attention and maybe, just maybe, the situation doesn't deteriorate further. You have more time to brake, they have more time to get the *&^% out of your way.
2. Distracted drivers, who somehow feel you're not honking at them. Louder = more change to make them peel their eyes off the phone/nav/lunch or whatever.
3. Mega-watt bass thumpin' stereos. You need to be able to pierce thru all that noise inside the car. If you can hear it that loudly in YOUR vehicle, imagine what they're hearing inside theirs.

These are just off the cuff at the moment, sure others will come up with more.

Ok reason #4....I had a $29.95 Sears air horn put on my 1979 F150....if I saw a dog or pet or critter too close to or on the road, I could blow that thing and they would haul butt back to the house...possibly saving a life....regular horn they just lookup ... and maybe the owners would hear inside and realize what just went down

Not crucified... How I see it;

As far as I know (which might be incomplete) a horn signal can be as loud as it needs to be as long as it’s proportional to the danger to be averted.

That aside, I love a good scare prank every now and then?

Bottom line, use it wisely.

I bought this kit because I'm confronted daily with idiot drivers in the Denver area. It's really unbelievable. I can't just scare people for fun... That's a good way to get shot #karma'sabitch.
