What is this Button? - Solved

I’m not far behind @iamdub.

Coyote, 3 turtle doves in the grill at once, owl, deer twice, cat (body was flat but tail was waving for a little bit), squirrel, dog (poor kid broke my heart) multiple birds (windshield and antenna), turtle, various raccoons, skunks, opossums, etc.

A fellow Owl killer! Your list is nearly identical to mine.

Well, Iowa and Wisconsin do have similar creatures.

I don't mean to laugh--but I can just picture that flat cat waving its tail like a white flag.

Thaf's one helluva list dub! You need one of those kill lists on your fender--like what the Americans put on their planes during WW2. I hope that list wasn't all in 1 day.

Lol

Nah, just from years of living in and driving through rural areas. Within the past month- owl, ****, mouse and almost a coyote.

Damn, killer. All I’ve hit in 45 years of driving is a squirrel or two. But I don’t live in Louisiana either where there’s probably something squirming or crawling across every road. But still...damn, killer!

I get a sick gut feeling every time it happens either by me or someone else. Well, except for crawfish or snakes. The thought gives me a shiver and an "ugh", but then I'm over it. Yeah, we have critters EVERYWHERE.

My brother (may he Rest In Peace) went to Louisiana after one of the big hurricanes to help rebuild. They stayed in camps in the middle of nowhere, by the bayous and he told me about it. Especially the stuff in the middle of the night that freaked him out. And the snakes and gators everywhere...no thanks. I like being able to jump in some nice clear fast-flowing water with nothing in there that bites with the exception of a crawdad.

My sister hit a deer on two successive trips to my house to visit me. She now refuses to drive to my house at night.

That would better if it was your MIL.

LOL My MIL would have put a plow on the front of her vehicle, and just keep coming over.

I thought Mark meant it would be better if your sister had hit your MIL (twice?) instead of a deer.

Ok now THAT thought is dark lol...

Lol you got me

It's ok. Not all of us care much for our in-laws. Even (or especially) the ones we no longer have.



...No longer have due to divorce. Not from siblings repeatedly running them over.

I have two push button switches that have been added to Lola’s dash. I’d had her a few weeks before I even saw them, since the thecopcar doesn’t have then I didn’t look. Of course I pushed both immediately. They’re momentary. One is tied to a relay that I can hear, for whatever reason. There had been another mounted right in the steering wheel spoke trim. None of them seem to work now. However, seeing how easy it is to add the tow/haul function, I know what one is likely to become.

I finally remembered to take pics of my mystery buttons. These are in Lola. They’re not present in thecopcar.

The truck is on a slight incline, otherwise you'd see through the woods and up the hill, on the other side of the road.

Did you tie into the trailer lights for the backup wire? I used that wire for my after market Dashcam

I believe that a separate home run power was run for the light bars, as I have a switch under my dashboard, which allows me to manually turn on the light bars, with or without the key being in the ignition or the truck's motor being on, for use as a auxiliary powerful outdoor light source.
