It's your car....do what you like. Wouldn't it suck if you didn't have the freedom to make your own decisions?? 😁
In economics there is a concept of "external costs and benefits". it refers to when an action has an impact on others. Blasting sound out at 5 in the AM would clearly be an example of this.

So...yes...it is the owner's car but that doesn't mean he has the right to directly and negatively impact others. This is no different than driving at 70 mph through neighborhood streets or being a left lane hog. Yes...it is the owner's car but that doesn't give the owner the right to do whatever he wants when his actions affect others.

It really gets to me when a driver is going down a residential street with these loud sounds and his windows are all closed. Maybe he needs the loud sound to hear it through the windows.
