If someone pulls out in front of you and has their stereo up(or can't hear well) then they can hear you if you have a train horn, it's not stupid... It saves lives. Or if someone is on their cell phone and you honk, that makes them attentive to their surroundings and therefore saves even more lives.

No I actually hate golf, but the video is my reasoning for saying I hate them. People get them and the first thing they do is go and prank people and truthfully I'm the one that if you do that to me I'm going to chase you down and throw something through you window or drag you out and. Just giving you my point of veiw.

On my daily driver I have the horn blasters shocker kit. The tank and compressor are in my tool box in the bed. My reason for having one besides being really fun is one my stock horn doesn't workvand is really only they for inspection reason and 2 is a cummins with a 5in straight pipe so it's hard to hear. My truant horn is hooked to a button for use and the tank is set at 150 psi and the compressor comes on by a pressure switch on if the tank is below 110psi and the key is in the on position. And that is on a switch incase I don't want it to come on for some reason

nothing wrong with some good clean humor but the horns are illegal in some state because of the loudness ....what we used to do back in the day was bend the windsheild squirters to the side and squirt people on the sidewalk it was freakin funny...

Theyre illegal mostly anywhere. I've had mine for exactly a year. I'm 17 And I havnt got in trouble with them yet. I use the only if the is a big group of people or I'm in danger. Only rule I have is no little kids, old people or animals and not while around other cars unless I'm in danger.



Now black Friday was fun as he'll btw

I would let you rear end me and smash in your radiator and plastic front bumper, then I'll drive off and tell the cops while you are stranded there and fuming with anger(then i can go out and buy a 4wd xj and you would be in jail and have no cherokee and have points on your insurance from the ticket given), if you throw a drink, I'll throw one back... Oh yeah good luck catching my XJ on those 31's.... I beat all the cherokee's in our monthly meet(7, includes stocker's, all are HO but 2 are manual and the rest are auto, 2 are 2wd the rest are 4wd; one of them is full bolt on HO on 31 Yokohomas and 5-speed manual).... some of them by a good margin with my mods, some of them were close(1995 HO auto bolt on stocker). Ran 15.8 @ 86.8 mph last night at Thunder Valley Raceway, first run done in a few weeks.
