Anyone know more details as to the occupants?

LMFAO - yeah I noticed that too - power purge right there - looks like the back of the "last stop" gas station toilet 100 miles down the road from "Jose's all you can eat Spicy Burrito Barn".

Scary. I nearly hit a moose this summer just out of Spirit River in my Chevy. Big thing decided to do a u-turn right as he started onto the road in front of me and walked back into the bush. After seeing this, sure reminds me how lucky I am to still be here today...

Fellow employee hit a moose going 100 kph. 2015 F150. All the safety features worked. He was not hurt. Wrote the truck off. Did not even kill the moose.

That's terrifying. I hit a cow on the highway once, came over a hill on a moon less pitch black night and there she was. Did the same damage but didn't end up in the box or our laps. Moose accidents scare the poop out of me.

A friend hit a moose coming back from our boys hockey game, with a full load of people in her brand new Cadillac Escalade. Dead center in the grill. They wrote the Caddie off. Nobody was hurt though! Apparently an airbag in the face stings!

I would rather be in a steel skinned vehicle in the event of an accident.

While someone is shooting at you? Do you think a steel cabbed Chevy or Dodge would be better?

Nobody was in the passenger side. Must have a sensor.

Why would the passenger side deploy if there is no one sitting there?
Most vehicles don't arm the passenger side unless there is weight in the seat.

If it was a Chevy they might aim at the truck instead of you.
