The loudest option available is free if you own a Sawzall

or a wrench, to unbolt the pipe where it joins the catalytic converter

Just cut the cat off and sell it and you can even make money on the deal

It should be. Make it as inconvenient and expensive to own big and/or loud cars. In fact, let's structure society that anyone can drive but they understand they are last priority in the infrastructure queue.

Pedestrians, bikes, trains, buses/trams, and emergency vehicles all come first, then industrial vehicles (material transport or construction vehicles or any other large commercial/industrial vehicle, then and only then come personal vehicles.

Small, electric, quiet cars get first priority in this section, then hybrids and efficient gas cars, and then finally and only then, big trucks.

But ban them being overly polluting and loud. Big is already enough of a burden.

Not that inconvenient to cut a pipe in half.

Though some do still struggle with oil change and tyre changes so wouldn't really baffle me.

But they'll just do it themselves for $0, as has long been the case.

I wish. Maybe there would be less of those then.
