read earlier.....if anybody desire to drive up in the Adirondak Mts in Eastern NY.....on sides roads esp, damn things have caused high % of traffic deaths in recent years. I'm at opposite end of NY, near Buffalo/Rochester but recall yrs ago not that much of a problem (think '60s). A VW camper bus...no front projection, but I never encountered any. So, beware

Knew it had to out west, trucks that old don’t live to that age w/o lots of BS&T, restoration and $’s here in Maine, we have the big boys here and generally only cause for alarm is getting between a calf, or calves, and mother, males are rather easy going unless they have Brain Worms which they get in areas where they and the Whitetail Deer exist since the deer carry the infestation but are basically not bothered by it, it can drive a Moose crazy. banjo What do you mean by "that age" ? You some kind of whippersnapper? The Torres brothers just broke in that Ford "Tall Boy".

I can imagine! Years ago, I hit a cow elk at 60 MPH in a Ford Expedition. Not good. Bull Moose bigger and heavier.
