Recommended Posts

In fact, I want one so I can get the attention of all the dummies around here who are too busy with their phones to drive.

I had a Kleinn train horn setup on my last truck. Loved it. I'd get another if I had the money. I never used it to be a dick and scare people, just scared the people that cut me off or who deserved it.

You guys should stop playing traffic cop and concentrate on your driving.

Horns are not as bad as dark tinted windows, blacked out lighting IMO. :happysad:

Yeah that's a completely BS story, not enough db to cause hearing damage unless it was sustained for minutes and he was a lit closer than that

 

A ship horn maybe, definitely not a train horn.

 

Imo, although it's immature, I think it's pretty funny. Harmless prank.

No it isn't I have worked with the guy for years. Go run a train horn directly at your ear with your ear and train horn being about 10 feet apart. Tell me how it works out for you.

Thought this forum was the traffic cop/moral police place to go... I stopped asking questions awhile back because that's all people do here. Ask a question and no one answers, instead they give 1000 reasons why you shouldn't because the law/manufacturer/ etc blah blah

I can believe it but also believe it's different depending on the persons ear and the model of horn perhaps.

 

I'm a firefighter and was in the bed one day. The other guys carried in a train horn in my room that barely wider than a twin mattress, and also a portable air compressor. I can tell you it was very very loud, and also cleared the room of all dust:/.

 

My ears were ringing for alittle while that day, but got back to norm before the day was over if I remember correctly(probably 10 years ago now).

 

By no means am I condoning, and it deff wasn't smart or mature of them.

I think you guys need to lay off of grizz_wi. I see no problem with having a train horn as long as you are responsible since they are very loud. In fact, I want one so I can get the attention of all the dummies around here who are too busy with their phones to drive.

I got rid of my Nathan K5's and installed a full set of 4 note Cadillac horns.

I'd like to know more about this...

    • I tried tapping it.  This might sound like a dumb question, you should feel vibration or some type of noise when it turns on? Can someone please verify? Thank you all!
    • I feel better now for my own view point and actions or lack there of towards the dealership service theme reading your post and others. GM corporate is who offers the two free oil changes on the HD trucks and I bought my truck in Feb of 2025 and those oil change offers run out within 2 years I believe and I highly doubt I will be using either one of them. I had asked if I could officially give those free services to another customer ( a friend ) and they said no, its all a GM corporate thing based on the vehicle in question. What that service advisor did however was go into a little story about how such and such customer was denied engine warranty because he had done his own oil changes because then they are not documented ... you see where that goes and so an employee playing the game of scaring the customer into having the service work done there most certainly triggered my thought process. At a later date I did talk to the person who handles warranty claims at the dealership and she said to be sure to document the oil changes and keep receipts for the oil and filter ( coped the receipts from cases of Mobil oil and case of filters I bought from them ) and the vehicles VIN, the date of service, mileage etc and staple that together as a record I would give them if that was ever needed and I keep my own log book for services for each vehicle as well. Oh and about 8 months after I bought the truck the dealer starts calling me to offer a maintenance service since they haven't seen my vehicle show up on their system ... for the mere fee of 300.00 Canadian to change the oil and rotate the tires and a few other minor checks and I declined the offer, I get the call again a couple of months later for the same thing and she could tell I was not interested and she asked if they should take my name off the call list and I said yes, do that !.    By the way did you happen to keep your factory oil filter to open it up and see the surprises inside as I expect some will show up as per the odd little sliver of metal shaving and particles that the filter does trap along with bits of grey silicone sealer that come off of the inside edge of mating surfaces. I have cut open every filter so far on my truck although few miles but have changed the oil often and the second filter was vastly better with very little of anything, that first filter was the unsettling one as I expected it would be. 
    • I get why they do this…but man…not ideal. I only extract on inboard boat engines because the drains are buried and even then I hate it because it’s easy to leave a quart behind with that method.   They should market it as an “oil refresh” not oil change!
    • I only get oil changed where I can watch. Valvoline pulls through the dipstick into a see thru glass. When done they show me the dipstick. About the only way they can mess up is using the wrong oil. But that secret wouldn’t stay secret long. Honda uses TQ wrenches on everything. You can watch through a plate glass window. Discount tires does that with tires. Trust but verify. 
    • I would not argue that with you. It would be pointless to argue against the truth and you speak the truth.    My question and in fact the entire point of this thread is an exploration into the levers of wear which happens no matter how well we maintain our powertrains.    Some of these levers we exert a good deal of influence over which can and do result is lower wear, longer powertrain life. Some others we are sort of stuck with.    An engine is typically done when the ring to bore seal no longer is able to do the job effectively. Normally the first thing to go in a engine otherwise well maintained and adult driven is this seal.    Looking into the means, methods, products and attitudes that influence the rate of wear seems a worthwhile inquiry to me.
