Horn

For you people not using the factory horn, what are you using? I'm not really looking for train horns (although I have entertained the idea) or the musical kind, just one that has some balls. My factory one just doesn't sound very manly.

Re: Horn

I picked up a new louder horn at Kragen. It's louder then the stock horn but not by much. JC Whitney has a bunch of horns I was looking at.

Re: Horn

I bought a new Bull Horn thinking that it would be just like the one I had on my 39 chevy years ago.. It isn't the same ..
to much plastic and not the same sound as metal I guess ..

Been thinking of putting a wolf whistle on also ..they will get someones attention..
As far as just stock horns ,,I would go for an old Chrysler New Yorker if you could find them...

Re: Horn

I have got some high pitched air horn, but it is funny because it doesn't fit my truck at all. I would like to get a horn that sounds like the ones on big rigs.

There is an highway juntion not far from me on the highway and every day or so I can hear this big rig chip trucks blowing his Train Horn at someone who just pulled out in front of him.. I bet it makes the hair on the back of thier neck stand up..
