Alright if it's a fresh kill, think of the bucks you'll save at the butcher.

Could put them towards ya new bullbar!

Nothing wrong with running green coolant in a 300tdi
If your steel bar is bending at 70-80kmh I'd be suggesting you go looking for a better one, my ARB has sent skippy to his maker at 100km/h and has nothing to show for it
Unlucky mate, fingers crossed it gets a speedy recovery (And some shiny new bits )

I have hit a few roos over time, the last one in the wife's disco 2 with a bull bar. The Roo wasn't particularly big about chest height. Green coolant? Must be the filter on the camera, it is supposed to be OAT brown colour.
this is the first time I have been stranded by hitting a Roo.

I run up to about 6 of those roo shoo things, haven't connected with one so far, touch wood.

Will the roo end up on the plate?

Whatever placebo of choice works for you! 😄

Google Doppler effect, then study frequency response, then look at the audible hearing range of a Kangaroo...

Those devices, including the electronic ShuRoo have been tested and proven to Not work.

Comments like above hold no scientific weight.

I drove 2000km a week every week through Northern SA for 6 months and never hit a roo... Then in one swing hit 3 roos, an Emu, a Fox and a walking steak factory (thankfully at sub 25km/h) - they crap big time!!!!!
Never hit another animal since! And I've just returned from a 2000+km trip offroad.

However, if you insist - I can offer a great deal on a Hiclone, Electrostatic strip, Polariser and Fuel catalyst.

Just the wind ones, thats why I say 'up to six', the buggers have a habit of scaring themselvs off.

I really have no idea if they actually do anything but 12 years and a $$$$load of dirt roads, haven't connected so far.

been close a few times.

Cheap insurance for me cause if I break it, I have to fix it.

"Been close a few times"

Wouldn't that VERY statement indicate that they don't work?

If they worked - the creatures would have turned away and you wouldn't have "come close"...

Something to think about...
