No stopping to gas up? What the hell, dual tank? 50 mpg?
Something stinks about this story

30 seconds into this story, I’m thinking a lot of the same questions?

What is up with these morons that report this stuff. Does it not occur to them to ask these questions; the “local animal control expert”?

Local to where? Nevada? Utah? New Mexico? Arizona?

My 11 year okd could have done a better job putting this story together.

When I went back to move my sister in law from Saginaw to Bakersafield I went from Amaeillo to Fort Wort without stoping.

My diesel truck had 1,200 miles of fuel.

I don’t remember the exact time on that leg but the total trip from Los Angeles to Saginaw was 37 hours.

FYI the story is real. And in the original article it said they stopped for gas twice. It was 1 AM when they hit the animal. You wouldn't see much in the dark, not on the Nevada Utah border unless there was a full moon. I would guess the coyote was knocked unconscious by the initial impact and spent most of the ride silent and immobile for most of the 8 hours it was trapped. The animal eventually escaped from the animal rehab person who took control after the extrication. If you are a non believer check it out on snopes: http://www.snopes.com/photos/animals/luckycoyote.asp
Cheers!
