Going to Tahoe? *First Damage*

It's most definitely "Bear Season".

Eff Bears. There was nothing in there it needed. First damage, and I still didn't cause it. WEAK

Luckily the family wasn't around during the mid-day visit.

Look closer at the reflection(s). See the dimples and ripples in them?
Use the long curb and white car roof reflections and look at how the curb goes all squiggly.

Basic version of what happened. Bear must've smelled or knew about the cooler under the bed rack system and tarp.
It tried to get in there and when it couldn't it started trying to shake the truck by standing off of it and falling/pushing into the truck's bedside.



The couple 2 sites down came over and showed me the picture and video he (tried) to take. Trying to get him to text me the photo.

Nice, maybe this? Widebody and a short lift to keep a bear from seeing what's in there? PDR's likely going to be $$$.

At Mt Madonna a bear tried to get into our car because it had the cooler with the food in it inside and it left some big scratches.

PDR guy did a great job. If you know how to look for it you can still find a couple left-over (read-as minute) ripples but I'm happy with it.


So I celebrated by adding 20hp.

So you are going to put the blame on my brother ursine, when in fact it was more than likely some stupid tourist leaning on your truck?
