Semi Truck Air Horns?

Hey guys,
This may be a question for our boys in blue on the forum. Are semi truck air horns legal on non-commercial vehicles? I know someone that has one on their giant Chevy show truck and love it. I want to know if i put one on my 07 EXT and use it, am i going to get pulled over ASAP for using it?

PS. I'm in Mass

Thanks for all the help.

i think it depends on what state:D

i think it would be funny as hell if you get the thing you pull when you use your horn:D
I had em on my truck before I sold it and I never had any problems. Inspection wise, I think you would possibly have a problem, but I'm not sure. I left my factory horn working and put the air horns on a switch, so I can't tell you for sure if it would pass with a huge ass airhorn blowing at the inspection station.

They are absolutely great when someone cuts you off.
I had 137 dB air horns on my Lade before I sold it. We don't have the burden of scheduled inspections in Arkansas though. I always thought the factory horn was too quiet. I considered the air horns a "safety" add on. ;)
I seen one with a train horn at the dealer's service station. Damn that was loud. I was standing 5ft from his SUV and I could feel the air pressure hit me.

Can this be hooked up with the alarm system? It would give a pleasant surprise to anyone trying to break in. :devil:
That is hilarious....I love it:bows:
Good one. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Good luck with that one. I am almost 100% sure that you can't have them in any state. I wouldn't even try it.

Got one on the way, who cares legal or not, thats pure comedy and I would love to see how johnny law would right that one up, besides it could be considered a safety upgrade, LOL
OMG, that's hilarious!! Thanks for sharing. :lol:
Yea, I just checked ebay for the train horns... They are small enough you can conceal them, and as long as you leave your factory horn hooked up I dont see youll have much of a problem unless youre an idiot.
I dont know of a dually here in Miami that doesnt heve them.
You HAVE to watch this to the very end! BIG BRASS BALLS. :D

AHAHAH! That took guts. :alchi:
hahaha....i wanna see the aftermath. I wonder what the ticket was like? Went from written warning to DOAH!! :banghead:
video with the black officer was staged, but funny anyway
Anyone know if you can splice a set of train horns or air horns in the compressor in the rear?
