Weird cruise control trick (easter egg)

Next time you're riding down the road, press and hold the "on" button and the "coast" button on your cruise control at the same time. The horn will honk.

Works on my brother's 2003 F-150's and my 2003 F-350's

Chester, with all the work you have to do out there on the farm, how in the world do you have time to figure out things like that???? Oh, and by the way, do you live in Vienna or Georgia... or do you live in Vienna part of the year and Georgia the rest of the year???? You have me confused. Why don't you just press the horn button????- seems like that would be easier. Just mess'in with Ya. Honk on... err, I mean drive on!

My brother figured it out... Don't ask me how! But it's a weird trick. I about 5 miles outside the town of Vienna in the state of Georgia in the USA. It's in Dooly county.
I have a Dually, I live in Dooly county (pronounced the same), and If I didn't have a firefighter tag, I'd probably get a personalized one that said "dually" with dooly (county name) underneath it. That would confuse a few...

Blame my wife for it Chester. We've been married a lot of years and when I married her I was just a simple country boy... well maybe not simple, but a country boy. Her father was a cut-up and she followed in his footsteps. I'd either get on the sense-of-humor train, or get run over by it, so I decided the 1st choice was the better one. I'd rather laugh any day than cry. Life with her has been 7 days a week at the amusement park. The kids took after her and I figured 4 against none was better than 3 against one. I always say "learn to laugh at yourself or someone will do it for you". You don't make that "Vienna Sausage" there in Vienna do Ya? I always thought Vienna was in Italy. Well, learn something new every day. Keep a smile on Chester- it's the only way! We'll leave the light on for Ya.

I have had the same green '97 F150 since I was 15 yrs old... (I'm now 25). I just noticed yesterday that if you press the 4 (side 1-2) and the 6 (shuffle) button on the radio at the same time, the radio will shuffle through the 4 speakers in the truck. Weird.
