    Does anyone with a 3rd gen have a sound meter? If so, can I get some measurements of the decibels that the stock Tundra horn puts out? I don't really know how it should be measured, maybe from like a meter away? Let me know... thanks

    P.S. make sure engine is off so it doesn't interfere

    I've tried that. At a Guns & Roses concert, it showed about 100 decibels, so not very accurate

    You can probably find the specs on the horn output with a litype research.We have a sound pressure calibration workstation at work. If you lived in Aurora , CO I could record a very accurate reading..haha! Sound pressure apps using your phone are crap by the way.
