Snuffin' Birds

[Alan Reagan]

I found a dead bunch of feathers on the inside of my bumper. Must have sucked him back in as I went over the rascal. Maybe we could get decals like they had in WWII. One for deer, one for birds. Ya know what I mean?

 

[Briar Hopper]

Already had a friend at work suggest getting "Tweety" decals #ad
Yeah, the whole thing's hilarious. I can fix the truck, I'm not upset about that. It's just that I find the whole thing to be nothing short of nuts ! It's just too strange and funny, had to share it with the rest of y'all, and get some laughs. Guess I'm gonna find PETA camped out on my front porch in the morning!
Don't nobody tell 'em about the 2 possums, 3 skunks, and 1 rabbit I've also flattened !

I know how you feel, I get less birdshit on my truck when its parked under the tree in front of the house, park it in the open and they nail it!! I actualy had one hit the top of the gas door and go in and get on my GAS CAP!! I bet they all talk to each other and make bets on what they can hit and where they can hit it. Maybe the bird that took your grille out was a redneck bird... famous last words were "Yall Watch This" lol

Tom... I suggest you mark your kills on the truck like the old fighter planes did. When the bird get near ya and see the number of kills you have... they will back off and find another truck to dirtnap into. . #ad

... BTW... Mine is black and never took out any birds... knock on wood #ad

[Briar Hopper]

Well, JB, if you got a black truck too, and the birds leave you alone, it must be because they're all over in NYC, or been et up by the buzzards hovering around the fills...
Must be the birds in Kentucky, then, that are the problem... They think the truck is a tornado, and they're aiming for the center of the storm...

 

[LSMITH]

Briar, slow down man!!! Those poor little birds don't stand a chance when you are doing 110 MPH! Get her under warp 5 and your problem might go away, LOL.

Tom . . watch out there might be a pistol tot'in fish and game warden reading and lock ya up for some damnn infraction. . like killing an indangered sparrow or crow or somp'in. . #ad

I just killed my 7th bird in less than a year, with my black Sport dually... and it broke out the right front grille , for the 3rd time this year...
What is it about black trucks that gets these birds to kamikaze on me? I killed 6 with my 98 1500 Ram gasser, which was also a black Sport model...
Do I need to paint a white patch on the hood and re-name my truck "Sylvester" ?
I don't know if it's the trucks or the birds, maybe just the birds. I still haven't figured out how they can do a 100mph flying sideways shat and leave splotches on the rocker panels! Or the time I got a splotch right at the end of the "RAM 3500" door badge, so skillfully applied that even the partially-digested worm in the mess made the whole thing look like a comma.
Anybody else got a bird problem?

I wonder if the birds are attracted to the turbo noise.

If I could get "Tiny" up on the roof of my house, I'd love to RAM some pigeons.
My neighbor keeps thinking I've lost my mind.
First it was the POS Crosman from KMart.
Then I retrieved my old Daisy 977 target rifle.
Then I put on the scope. It's a cheapie, but works ok for identification before I put lead on target.
then it needed a laser sight.
Now, my daughter's bipod's lookin' real tempting.
I'd get a brushguard, a "Tweety" rubberstamp, and do the white blotch/Sylvester thing, If I were you.
if nothing else, it'd make a great conversation piece.
As for the turbowhine question, I kinda don't think so. Birds go away from me, quick!

 

[Briar Hopper]

Killed the eighth bird yesterday morning... I wasn't even going over 55 mph. I think it's the birds, met a guy at the truck stop with a black Ford, he asked if I'd had a bird problem lately !!! He claimed he's killed 11 in the past few months !

Briar - You realize your poaching birds, don't ya? Killing any animal even with a stick is poaching in the eyes of the law. I have a good mind to report ya! #ad

You know Tom, with all the mods and the new turbo. Is it possible that your actually pulling them towards your truck. They can't help it. They try to fly away, but that 40 keeps pulling them in. #ad

Very funny, Gitch, maybe that's why my K & N RE-0880 keeps getting sucked inside out, and I have to pull it back out every other day. #ad

JyRO, on your trip to Georgia, instead of poaching gators, get one of your kissin' cousins to take you water-skiing behind a rowboat. It's an old southern past-time. we'll see if you'll be the second man in the history of the world, to walk on water. #ad

Just made a trip from Marietta Ohio to Crofton KY (Uncle Died) and back in my Black Dually & them there Kantuckee birds didn't bother me 'nun. But when I had my '85 gasser D-150 I took out a grause once! Man that hurt the grill.

The only good bird is a dead one!
