Why Such a Puny Sounding Horn?

[2024Denali]

So I found it quite comical that a full size pickup has such a meh horn. I honked at someone and my wife couldn’t stop laughing at it. Enough to where she suggesting trying to change it lol. Are these horns terrible on all models?

Wouldn't surprise me if the specific tone and decibel level is regulated now.

I'm going to have to honk my horn on my 2020 Silverado to see if it's a sissy.

If it is I will be changing it out pronto.

I don't honk much but, by God, when I do I mean it and I want them to know it!

The '19s a more than normal loudness .......have 2 horns, high and low note...... even the momentary keyfob confirm beep is loud.

 

GM pulled this crap once before......same days as the combo seat belt/ignition cutoff........I'm thinking my '74 Impala.....also had 2 horns but only sounded the low note.....sounded really stupid like a cheap one horn compact....... but at least had to slide a switch near the brake release to add the high note for a louder sound.

It’s just sounds like a small car horn. Maybe it’s because I have the 2.7 haha

Or maybe there really are two horns and one is inoperative.....the low note alone will sound like $hit. Try the horns in another 2020.

Stand in front of it and have someone honk it, I think you will realize it is much louder than it appears to be while your in cab. Can't believe some of the things people complain about these days. Especially on the T1'S. If there's things a person doesn't like about them why buy it and then complain.

No one is complaining Mr. Booger. If you read the post, you will see that it was funny, not a complaint. Don’t try to stir up another internet argument.

Would be surprised if there are at least some trucks that have horns that aren't working correctly. 

 

Maybe listen to some else's for comparison. 

 

(otoh, I can't say as I've gone out and listened to on of the new ones to compare with prev gen...)

If you think this horn is puny, you should hear the horn on a Honda Pilot, it sounds like it belongs on a toy car. Seriously my wife’s suv has the smallest sounding horn I’ve ever heard.

Although I’d disagree on the T1 horn; my T1 LT TB horn sounds fine. Maybe because I’m comparing to my wife’s Honda.

I will say this, I got honked at by some person in a Ford and that sucker was loud.

Same here. We just got a new Silverado 6500HD. This massive truck literally has the most comical horn ever. Its sounds identical to our daughter’s horn on her Honda civic. My wife laughed out loud when she heard it too.
