    Haha i have no idea to be honest. Its got some kind of siren looking thing under the hood but idk if thats stock or not. I knew y'all would be just as surprised as I was when i first heard it honk whilst loading up the bed....I think the truck's got some electronic issues

    sounds like an aftermarket alarm acting up.

    If it's got an aftermarket alarm then it's most likely a sensor going or gone bad. :shrug:
