Or do others accidentally honk the horn getting in and out of their Bronco?
I swear I'm not just looking for attention...But I do get a lot of random waves when I do.

I did once. Getting out to take pictures of Bears in the road... Did not scare them though thankfully.

In our off-roadeo group, we had accidental horn hits 5 times (there were 3 vehicles in our crew). I was personally responsible for 3 of those horn hits.

It's really easy to do when bouncing around off-road.

I haven't programmed my garage door opener yet and am constantly hopping out of the car with it still running. When you close the door it quick beeps twice. My wife keeps shaking her had at me thinking I'm honking at her from inside. Lol.

I'm confused - Are you physically bumping the horn when you exit the vehicle, or is it the vehicle honking at you a couple times because you didn't turn off the vehicle and exited it?

Happened a bunch at the off roadeo- you'll adjust- everyone was doing it the first day, not as much the second.

It happens, big center pad makes it super easy to do, particularly off road.

I hit the horn at least 3 times doing Off Rodeo Moab back in Aug. Driving with 1 hand at the 12 o'clock position will result in your forearm hitting the horn on rough terrain. Had to go back to Drivers Ed 10 and 2 in order to stop honking at the Bronco ahead of me.

This is the worst. Its slightly delayed just enough so you have time to get right in front of the hood before it blasts you twice. Im trying to find a way to disable it.

The horn is way too big. I hit it in the showroom upon getting in and made every head in the building turn.
