    Well, I'm driving home from work and a big ol honk'n tractor-trailer tried to merge in to my brand spanking new Taco!! If that was not enough another clown
    Did the same thing. I need a big monster horn! Maybe some air horns.

    Man! I love this truck! Best truck that I've ever owned.
    Even my wife likes it. On top of that my wife's daughter likes it too.
    It's just a 4 banger but the truck is a monster truck to me!
    I've had 3 other trucks in my 57 years, this one is the best.
    It may not be the most powerful or the fasted but it is the best!
    BOY HOWDY! This is a nice truck!

    Oh yeah...did I say that I really like this truck?:yay::cheers::yay:

    No! And I was not riding in the deaf spot either. :eek::burnrubber:
    BTW I ride a Harley Ultra Classic and I'm used to cages not acknowledging me.
    These tools had their heads up their poop shoot!

    I'm a biker and I read the driver as well as the vehicle. I saw the wheels moving into my lane and I saw the driver talking into his freak'n head set! Stupid Son-beach! I hit the horn and the gas to prevent a collision.
    But hey, it's all good on my new Taco!:dancingbacon:

    A train horn might scare the crap out of them, not safe. But I find adding a really loud exhaust, helps people hear you before they merge into your lane. Cause lets face it, some people don't even bother looking over when they merge.
