dang tootin'

You bet, partner

Dang tootin' is an emphatic expression of agreement or affirmation, equivalent to "absolutely" or "you bet." The phrase is folksy and rural-sounding, evoking old Western or country speech: You're dang tootin' I'll be there.

Dang is a euphemism for damn, and tootin' likely derives from tooting one's horn—asserting something boldly.
