From the archive:

I drew this after having an argument with an arse hole who said he aimed his car at animals, and was going to fit a bull-bar to the front so he could get bigger animals.

now that would look a treat on the PsychoDuckTruck..

This is actual equipment in the US...

We offer those as actual equipment on many trucks here in the USA, particularly those in rural areas.

Sans spikes, of course...

But round about the second or third time you've hit a deer in one season, it gets rather old having to shell out 2-3K to replace the front end of your truck.

One bloke over here put a HUGE one on the front of his truck after spending 5K on a new front end. He didn't even slow down when he saw the next deer, just slammed into it and flung it into the boot, kept right on going.

Buul Bar, Roo Bar

They're practically standard issue here in the bush (minus spikes, of course.) Almost all 4WDs and many cars have them, and a semi-trailer without one looks wierd.

Roos and deer have the same effect on front ends, but the most dangerous animal by far is the wombat. Hit one of those at speed and the front wheel ends up in the engine bay, and if you're lucky the car won't flip over. Hitting a wombat really pisses them off.

A bogan is easily recognizable by the roo bar on his ute.
