Yep. I worked and ran locomotives.

You're a pedantic, pontificating, pretentious bastard, a belligerent old fart, a worthless steaming pile of cow dung, figuratively speaking. (sorry but this is a hilarious movie line quote.)

Wait. I dont know you. Perhaps I shouldnt judge and perhaps you shouldn't as well. people do many things to their cars for different reasons. There is a great thread here on modding a Pilot as a rally racer.

Don't skim on pressure switches and safety items.

How on earth you are going to stop kids playing with the switch to the Daddy train I have no idea......
I've toyed with removing the spare but didnt dare. But if I DO kill 2 birds with one stone as far as enabling/running line for tire inflation, maybe i could swing it.

I realize some of you are wondering why. Bottom line is these horns have been collecting dust for years. Why not use them. I happen to live near a few rail crossing where I'd sue them. And sure, I may use them to ward off any REAL threats, like NJ and NY drivers.....like hkellog above

The hornblasters video of what looked like a civic made me pee myself with laughter.
I think what they do in the videos is funny but overkill, you know?

Put in a quick connect for tire inflation and get the Air Lift kit for the rear to help eliminate sag. GL and be sure to post pics!
I dont know much about air lift kits. Please expand upon this!
