How many car alarms have you set off...
...with your truck? (NOT by running in to them).
I don't mean to do it on purpose, just sometimes driving around in a parkinglot idling along and when the auto shifts into 2nd the straight pipe makes a sound that I guess is just the right "wavelength" or whatever to cause someones car alarm sensor to vibrate and go off...
Anyway I think I've set off about 6.

Just wanted to see how it sounded echoing off different types of vehicles.
I try not to put my foot into it that much now.

At least one a week for the last 3 years since I put the exhaust on my truck.
My old GMC used to rumble enough to set them off all the time too. There is a mall near here with an underground parking garage. If you drive through there you can set off dozens of them at once. lol

3, but being in the country we don't get many car alarms around here. If we take the truck to one of the larger cities in the area, that's where we get them to go off. 1 at Wal-Mart, 1 at Lowes and 1 at the mall...
