haha, that's awesome. The only brush I've had with a bear in the wild was a few years ago when I was out plinking with a .22. I saw what I thought was a porcupine, but it was moving way too fast. My next thought was....dog? Then it climbed a tree. It was a bear cub. I marveled at the sight until I heard something behind me. It was momma bear. I set a land speed record vacating the space between a mother black bear and her treed cub. ------------- ? |

I hit a huge black bear in seven mountains in PA when I was in college... Pretty much destroyed my convertible truck... And I had the top down. He ran off after I hit him, and it didn't even knock him over!
It was like hitting a brick wall.
Did you know that insurance calls hitting a bear an "act of God" and it is covered under your comprehensive insurance (I had zero deductable), they even had the bear hair from the front of the truck analyzed because they were hoping it was something else, so I would have to pay. ------------- 
Try being informed instead of just opinionated. How long before you admit that Obama was a mistake? |

Convertible truck? I honestly didn't know about them. Saw a black bear once while hiking the Delaware Water Gap. Momma and a cub just walking down the trail, came out of the woods about 100 feet in front of us. I decided it was a good time for a rest. ------------- BU Engineering 2012 |

Dakota made a production convertible back then...
I did mine myself, first convertible truck in NC 1989.
 Here it is before I chopped the top off. My first car the yellow 78 camaro, and my second car the 78 Z-28 are also in this pic. I was 17 at the time.
 Here it is after I chopped it.
 Then I really slammed it down 3 1/2 inch clearance.
 And then after I hit the bear, they painted it the wrong white, so I painted the back of the truck miata blue, in my driveway, in a homemade paint booth.
 I was sponsored by Oakley at the time, and everyone had one of those Oakley sticker on their cars... So I changed mine around a bit... -------------

Stated like someone who has never lived someplace where there are aggressive black bears. -------------
