So heres my question: Whats the diiference if I honk my "train horn" or some "trucker" honks his?

There really isnt one. People might think there is a semi-truck behind them but that is all.

As stated in the OG post, its more of a novelty than anything. A small one at that. I dont spend my day honking at every pedestrian or car on the road.

Its not that big of a deal everyone.

I wouldn't call those "Train" horns per se. The real ones are too big to mount under the hood of a car. Some idiot has them on top of his hummer around here and I've run into one big rig that had them. I was next to the truck as people were running the light turning in front of him and he let loose with it and damn, I about had a heart attack. Real train horns are WAAAAAY louder then whats on the car in the first clip. And the good ones cost 2 to 3 grand.

I have FIAMM air horns on my Eclipse that give it a Ferrari style trumpet blatt, but they aren't the kind that cause people to duck and fall down like a train horn does.

Ha ha no need to try to justify it man. Semi truck horns aren't as loud as trains. You did it for the mischief not to let people know there's 40 tons of semi truck or 3 miles of freight train about to come barrelling through.

Yeah, I was talking about the OP's car. Yeah, those are real ones. I think I saw your car at NOPI this past year. It seemed there were alot of people with "horns" blowing them at each other during the whole show.
