  • Hi, do you think i could mount the tank and compressor under the toolbox or is that not enough protection

  • @SuperFLyTYEr If you don't have a bed cover, I don't think that would be enough protection from the elements.

  • @motorztv hmmm ok where else do you recomend?

  • @SuperFLyTYEr Get a truck box that will fit it all and make sure it's got a tight seal to keep water out.

  • @BigAl0305 Yes, they're illegal everywhere as they violate noise ordinances.

  • @OSAMAxxxxxxxxxxyz Well you just said it yourself. These are made for cars... clearly as you've stated you can't put real ones on a car :) Thanks for watching!

  • if all this runs off of 12v power how do you run it off your car battery and what cellanoid do you use? is it included?

  • Hey, how would you feel putting the compressor and tank in the trunk of a car? thanks

  • that wasn't a good advert for Ford's building quality, just rip it...

  • i need me some strippers. O_o

  • @motorztv not here in Atl the cops laugh at them

  • They sound weak

  • @motorztv You can put real train horns on a car. I've done it. They just require more air but they are MUCH MUCH louder.

  • @xXFRISJEXx The horns can get wet, all you have to do is honk them and all the water comes right out.

  • @bcsprothree you could try wiring the standard horn and the train horn through a switch, so you could have the switch flipped one way to have it on standard horn and have that, and then flip it the other way to have it on the train horn, i'd research how to do it 1st before trying

  • can you pit a string to set it off? you know like a semi has?
