Re: OT, air horns
Thanks Paul.
My Jeep rides on the trailer for the most part, no city driving except for
around the neighborhood. I would hate to make a neighbor mad.
I am going to try something a bit milder than what you have or the more
expensive sets to start. I made a purchase on eBay, I am sticking with older
and deeper sounding models, that all I am going to say. I will consider this
to be a test for me, to see if I want to go further.
