Hi Earle,
There were pack rats like that here in southern Kalifornia, but
little by little they were all zoned out by people that moved here and
then when about converting God's country into the Hell they left behind.

Not working under 35 MPH is a major flaw in my mind. Often I would like to
hold about 28 MPH in 3rd gear in a 25 zone that has speed traps. I think
that they could have set it up so it would hold at any speed. One of my
biggest disappointments for the TJ.

According to tests done at the University of Connecticut "deer whistles"
are a fraud and a waste of money. Those that whistle at all do so at a
frequency well outside the hearing range of deer.

I don't know if anyone else watches a cable show called Mith Busters but
they tested every thing that has to do with Deer repellant for autos and to
no suprise they all do not work it was very interesting.
