Coyote Survives Eight Hour Trip In Honda Engine Bay - Accidents - Jalopnik

 

Just heard about this on the news. They only mentioned it was a Honda.

 

Didn't that always happen to Wile E. Coyote in those Looney Tunes? He'd hear that "beep-beep" sound, leap into the middle of the road to ambush the road runner, only to be KO'd by a car or truck.

I always thought that stock Fit horn sounded like the road runner. I guess this proves it!

 

Lol! How did they not pull over to check for any damage? If I felt that I hit something, I would always pull over to make sure everything's ok. Glad the coyote is fine. And the GE8... Well, it's a Honda. Nothing to worry about.

 

wow, amazing. glad the coyote is okay. it is weird that they didn't stop to check it out though.

hondas are built to be safe for unsuspecting would-be-hood-ornament pedestrians, i guess this applies to wildlife critters too.

 

Another good reason for the grill mesh!

 

ive carried a bird home in the front end of a car before but not that. hahahaha.

 

another great reason to get rid of the "meep-meep" horn on the GE8! It attracts Coyotes thinking it's the road runner !

 

that's absolutely insane. at least the enormous USDM nose on the GE is good for something!

 

That's really cool. I wonder what else we can fit in there, front bumper storage FTW

 

Hi, while you are on the horn subject, what year civic are some people replacing the Fit horn with?

Thanks

 

It's actually the current accord horn but the 08 FIT had the same horn it was changed to the "meep meep" one on the 09

 

because of the grill design, im sure we will hear more and more stories like this. imagine if a skunk gets stuck in there. just imagine. you will have to shoot the skunk first to kill it just to stop it from spraying
