    Is your horn stock? How much trouble do you think you'd get into if you used a PIT move on him?

    No, I have a dual trumpet air horn. Lot of wind noise with the windows down at the time. About another inch or so and my tire would have touched the barrier and we would've found out.

    Yeah. Camera got to see more of the Dodge than I did. If anyone doesn't have a dash cam, it is definately something I suggest.
    You asked about the compressor, that's what it's for. But, it's time to go louder.

    In July I'm going to buy a few more. One looking out the back window and two for my car.

    Yea, I want one that has front and rear facing cameras and that I can pivot to face my door windows when I get pulled over. If I'm going to get one, I want it to cover all my bases.

    That scenario would have been a perfect urban application for sliders!

    Just be careful going to loud. Most states have laws for excessively loud horns being illegal. Which in turn could be used against you putting you at fault even in the situation of the video if the guy got a good lawyer. Though the guy definitely deserved it!

    Ive had a dash cam ever since I almost tboned a guy. Wasnt my fault though. Just turned on my road heading home. Got up to ~35. Guy comes screaming out of uhaul/storage place that had a blind entrance going ~30. Guy had 3 people in the back of his little pickup. THose people got a fun ride in the back while they heard my truck squealing and the backend going sideways. I ended up probably 2 ft from hitting him. Had I i not stopped even going 15-20 those three people would have been ejected out of the bed and im sure not felt good at all. Lucky for me another car was coming the other direction and saw the whole thing. Think the grandma and grandpa in the car were as scared as i was lol

    As loud as my air horns are, they still can't match the original horns in my '40.

    Personally, I believe a horn that would make the persons ears bleed is a reasonable level in the event of trying to avoid a wreck. And it can be heard from no less than 200 FT

    Any of you got advice on fenders?I still have the reg cab replacement I bought off the tweaker, and I'm using it as a sacrifice for test fitting a snorkel... Plus I have a bunch of other work lined up around that one part (the fender), so I want a new matching fender instead of this lopsided look.
    I poked online and a single fender looks to cost $275 ish, so is that the way to go or should I spring for fiber? I'm only ever going to run a 33, and you all know that TSF is pretty much the speed of what I do.

    Edit: one con about going fiber is that it's probably a whole different shape over stock and the test fit on the other fender would be pointless. I also failed to check if the stock fender came painted for the $275

    Not enough.
    Well, made it to Beaverton in one piece. The taco did well towing a fully loaded 5x8 enclosed trailer. Used just over 3 full tanks. Hope to see some of you guys around.

    First thing is first. I feel like a caveman without wifi so what provider do you guys recommend for this area? Mainly for streaming Netflix and gaming.

    Check out Frontier as well as the normal suspects like Comcast and Qwest or whateverthefuck they are called now. I have Frontier and like it.
