I was always told to avoid a moose at all cost. You have much better chances swerving in the ditch than you do hitting the Moose.
I don’t know exactly how true that is but it still what I live by.

She was karving her initials on it with the sharpened end of an interspace toothbrush, wasn’t she? Given to her by her brother in law Svenge, star of mani films - “Fillings of Passion”, “The Hot Hands of an Oslo Dentist”, and “The Huge Molars or Horst Nordfink”? That was all from memory - send help.

And I’m just over here in the southern US... but hey we have deer to worry about as well. The biggest whitetails get up to about 200 lbs. (for a doe, bucks almost never wander in the roads) and will properly mess up your car.

Yep, moosing truck = “you’re fucked”. Most moose don’t even carry insurance.

Know something that Norway, Maine and the country of Norway have in common? They both have moose and logging trucks. Funny how that works.

200lbs is nothing really. A moose weighs about 1000lbs and is quite tall, when you hit one(in a car especially) it breaks its legs and it falls and crushes your roof. If you don’t duck fast enough it will crush your head as well.

Would rather cleave through a deer on a motorcycle than hit a moose. I’d rather hit another car than a moose. I’d rather hit just about anything in the world than a moose.
A motorcyclist riding on Highway 417 in Ottawa was thrown from the bike after it cleaved through and killed a deer running across the highway.
The collision “literally split the deer in half,” through its midsection, said Ottawa paramedic Ian Courville, who witnessed the grisly crash while travelling to work....

In BC on the back roads we have two rules. 1) Up hill yields to downhill
2) everything yields to a fully loaded logging truck.

Eeeeesshh! Well, glad I don’t live in Canada (for other reasons as well).

Don’t worry the moose are very polite and will offer you timbits as compensation.

lol at one point. How much you want to bet the breather box hasnt been changed and the pipe next to the oil cap was grimy as hell?
![]() 05/08/2015 at 12:54 |

I won’t take that bet against it, the cam cover was probably pooled with oil. By the wheels, it might have been a GLT, which means it probably needed the vacuum manifold around the back of the engine too. And a throttle housing clean. And a purge valve. And it probably had several bulbs out, because every Volvo built since 1994 has a bulb out somewhere.

lol that is why my 93 960 always had them all on, RWD for the win! If you look closely the front and rear rims are different. Front is a S70 rim from the base US model

I have looked at so many old Volvo’s I think everyone that came off the boat between 1980 and 2000 I have laid eyes on
![]() 05/08/2015 at 13:43 |
|
haha you’re probably right, since they came off the boat on your coast! I’m picturing a guy in an old Peugeot, equipped with a long lens and a cooler of beer, looking through the fence at port and checking off a list...

smoking a pipe likely enough haha. I have the cluster out of the 505 today actually. the coolant warning light is not working properly, and that is the trigger signal that gets sent to the AC compressor. Bulb is fine, digging deep for a root with the old multimeter
![]() 05/08/2015 at 13:58 |
|
So it cuts the AC if the coolant warning is on? Is it for level or temp? Advanced stuff for the 80’s! Man, I miss just chasing wiring problems, it’s one of my favorite things to do on a car. Nice & quiet, not too dirty, but requires a lot of measurement, patience, and thinking. I’d much rather chase electrical problems in idiosyncratic old cars than work the desk.

it is for both! Glad I dont have one of the “talking” 505’s. That shit freaks me out.
I will always have cars I need to chase this shit on. Keeps me sharp
Though I really do want a series 1 turbo like this...

Wow, I don’t know if I’d allow that to live. Although I’d have a talking digi-dash Ur-quattro if I could.
