Good luck. I've been researching them myself for the idiot drivers up here. All I've found if you want loud and good are going to be $400-$500.

Great idea! Scare the crap out of everyone around you, so they can panic and lose control. LOL

Basically, my idea behind it is for the punk kids in the civics, cavaliers, and such. That and those who think they own the road. They cut me off all the time while looking right at me laughing. And seeing as though I have my 3yr old with me most of the time, I find it safer than me whoopin their *ss and goin to jail. Honestly, the way I look at it, is my wife and kids are the most important people in my life and if you put them in harms way your DONE! And Im using "you" generally, not specifically.

Why not just get the horn from a Semi Truck? They're pretty loud too.

Idea was that maybe there are more junk Semi's around that you could pull a good horn off of then trains. But it probably varies by area too.

I dont want an air horn sound. I want a deep train horn sound.

But yeah, i dont like the fact that other kids can do what they want and try to cause me to get in an accident. Thats why i want one of these horns.

And i was looking to get a semi horn but i would have to get a compresser and what not.

Is there any atleast under 300? About 500 bucks is too expensive for a horn regardless of how it sounds in my opinion. If i had to buy an expensive horn, i would get that one from hornblasters.
