| Might have damaged his ear drums, perhaps brain damage. Such power must be used wisely. I learned that in the Spiderman movie. | |
| If you use your horn regularly you might want to analyse your driving style. Always have a way out, and never drive beside other cars. I've actually used my horn once in the year I've had my car because the guy didn't see me passing. I was moving quick, and I always expect every car I pass to pull that same move. | |

He he, with power comes responsibility. -juice |

| In my area, it's a necessity to warn drivers you are coming down the road. I drive regularly on a "canopy" 2 lane road. Because of the thick trees, people have very limited visibility pulling out of side streets. There is nowhere to go to avoid an accident unless you want to end up in a head on collision, slam into a tree, or end up in a steep ditch. Damn Florida and protecting those canopy roads. They are pretty roads though, LOL. I was driving my Hyundai down this road when someone tried to pull out in front of me. My horn failed to work (bad relay) and she was halfway in my lane before she saw me and stopped. I had to swerve around her blindly or broadside her. If my horn had worked, she would have never pulled out. Anyway, horns come in handy for me and are used quite often. | |
| With loud horns come great responsibility! | |

We have just purchased a beautiful, mint condition, 1997 M-Series 5-speed with just 26K miles. We love this car except for the radio and c/d player, and speakers. Does anyone know an after market seller that has a system that does not entail major surgery to the car (both radio and speakers)? Thanks for any help. |

I do get intimidated sometimes in the Miata. For some reason, people tend to tailgate me more than in the other cars. If I get a semi alongside of me on the freeway, I really get nervous. Almost like riding a motorcycle. I do try to stay away from situations where I'm hard to see. Maybe I should get a killer horn. The wimpy one the car came with is almost a joke! |

| Thinks that make you go hmmmmmm | |
| Actually, the Miata does not go hmmm. It has a regular cylinder engine, not the rotary that inspired the hmmm commercials. | |
| I meant the person, not the car. | |
