Driving to Alaska

It's my favorite of the deer family.

 

Sounds like some backstrap and tenderloin are in order.

 

From the sounds of it, you have a "Hamburger Helper" installed to mitigate damage. Did it do its job?

 

Hope the OP isn't lost in the bush looking for that return load.

 

Note sure never tried it. I never stop for the road kill. The road was clear where I hit the two and you can still see the two flash frozen blood spots on the road. I think the last one probably made it clear into the tree line after a Western Star drove up it's butt at 100km/h.

 

Yes, the Magnum bumper did it's job again. It has taken one moose and three Caribou all around 60mp/h with no damage to hood. I lost a back up light bar two weeks ago and this time it pulled my fender flare off two bolts.

 

What kind of headlites are you using?

 

They are LEDs made by Speaker. I bought them in Alaska at the Truck Pro/ NAPA Traction store. They run about $350.00 each and work great. The only draw back they have is that they stay cold and will freeze over. The other day when I hit a bunch of ice fog I had to stop and scrap about an eight of an inch of ice off them. Stronger than seal beams too. Before I installed those I had to replace a seal beam on every trip since I had a rock go through.

 

If anyone ever came up with something to melt ice/snow off LED's that would really be the cat's ### right there.

 

water and a rag works wonders
