Default Train Horns, like em or hate em?

Yeah, so I am looking at putting a set of train horns on my 05 Excursion, It seems like as big as this truck is, it needs something really loud to get the attention of annoying prick assholes and the Toyota Prius owners. I mean my truck is a diesel already, I am getting ready to install a 4" MBRP exhaust on it. I definetely think it needs a louder horn.

Click the link, and turn up your speakers.

So, what do you think? I can pick this kit up for 370.00 delivered, Trainhorns.net sell similar kits for a crap load more. I dunno? Thoughts?

Go for it, make the truck stand out more then it already does. I love it when someone uses a loud one and fucks with the cars on the road.

I also hate the douche bags who seem to buy them. What is the point of them anyway? To scare the heck out of the little old lady in front of you who won't drive when the light turns green?

That and annoy the hell out of me when I'm trying to sleep at 1 or 2 in the morning.

There is no real use for them....Other than annoyance.

For real? C'mon, you mean to tell me that if you were driving with your family, some fuck tard comes speeding by and drives beyond the realm of aggresiveness, you wouldnt sneek up to him and open up and blare the horrendous sound of a 150+ db train horn? That shit is classic, now yeah blaring that shit at 1 or 2 in the morning is beyond assholyness, but have you ever watched some of the videos? That shit is funny as hell.
