rear mounting on a pickup?

[pyramid head]

is it plausable that i could mount a sterling m model the the box of my truck and use a small generator to power it?

You can mount it on the bed of the truck, though I don't know about the generator requirements. I think that a small generator is enough. We've had a small generator power a small cement-mixer.

i hate the horn in my truck, it sounds a bit stupid. so i was thinking of maybe a meatwagon or a police siren, they are too hard for me to find.~i know there are some on ebay but they are rather high bidding- and i want something that will get an idiot an idea of how crappy there driving is lol.

what is this siren? i like the sound it produces~ http://www.ringbell.co.uk/ukwmo/siren.jpg

It's a Carter model. It has a nice port-ratio, the one of a 2T22 or 3T22. It has a lower tone, though, as it runs on fifty hertz.

BTW, so you're planning on installing the M so that you can blast it while driving?

well i was thinking on it, but i just rememberd that they are very loud and could make my ears bleed. but yes that was my intension. maybe mount it on the top of a dumptruck...

Uh, you'll do it once, anyway, after which your truck will be impounded along with yourself. But it won't be anything drastic. Worst case it's a fine and a couple of weekends picking up highway litter.

Google Convert says that a horsepower is about 746 watts.

He could put dampers, which will allow him to do a very quiet growl without him confronting any legal issues. However, if you want to be completely safe, don't do it.

well, i wasnt brought in this world to listen to the rules of people i dont know, ill talk to somebody in law enforcment about it and get the details. i live in a area with no weather concerns so it should not matter, then againg people are always waiting to screw you over

I'm pretty sure sirens on a vehicle that isn't public safety of some kind is a no-no, but by all means ask.
