Installing deer whistles - Will it ACTUALLY do anything?

Well, we've all seen a new ford f-150 lightning review, and EV's in general, they are all EXTREMELY quiet. Which means we are faced with certain challenges. One of those challenges is wildlife. My new ford lightning was terrifying to drive at night, in rural areas like the one we live in. Having come from loud obnoxious cars, making tons of noise, this was never really a huge worry of mine, as most people wouldn't want to be near the sound, nevermind animals. I present to you, the safety improvement that may or may not work. This video is obviously more of a joke than anything, but i think it does stand to have a point. And should these little plastic dollar store horns actually work on the new electric ford lightning, it may stand to see another day. I'm really not sure if the deer whistles do work or not, but figured there's no harm in trying.

This video was more of just a joke, but like i said, it definitely can't hurt.

Thanks for tuning in!
Cheers.

Is there clearance behind the whistle for airflow to go through and exit? I believe they work by having air passing through it.

I wonder if there is any audio recording equipment you could use to test with and without to actually measure the change?

What is safer: driving by running, startled deer darting across the roadway, or deer that are on the side of the road barely aware you are zipping by?

I have passed more deer who seemed oblivious to me driving by since having the truck, compared to deer darting across the road in a startled manner.

Might have to revisit this video for updates in say six months or so.

I live in the country and have found unless you are accelerating most gas cars and EVs make about the same amount of noise just driving down the road. Which means it the tires that make the most noise. Just think you are over thinking things a bit. But at the end of the day if the whistles make you feel safer than get them.

Hello, my name is Braden Mann. I have a XLT Lighting in Ontario. I love your channel! I’m trying to install a factory trailer brake control module. Ford has them back ordered for months. I’m trying to see if one from an ICE F150 will work and was wondering if you could look under your dash to take a pic of the module part number. I could email with more details if you are willing to help me out. Thanks for considering helping me out. :)

Who wants to hear the whistling as your driving down the road I think it would be very irritating after awhile
