Rats..... a first time for everything
This is the first time in 52 years of hunting this has happened.
I walked out from 5 days hunting on DOC land and jumped in the Suzuki at the carpark and off home.
But a few niggly things weren't right with Suzy. Now I've had 2 vehicles windows smashed and burgled at DOC carparks over time. I've had fuel syphoned once up in the Kaweka's, and a head on with a MOW truck at Lake Waikaremoana.
This was minor by comparison and what put me onto it was the rear window washer wasn't working, although I could hear the motor pumping. Out of Water ? nah, cant be. The front windscreen washer was working, and a couple of other minor little things weren't right.
Once home I lifted the bonnet and checked the washer bottle.... over half full, so tried the rear washer several times more then noticed water running out from under the old girl. So I checked the washer hose and it had been chewed off at the firewall....... F#cking RATS
Then I noticed some exposed electrical wires ????? and closer inspection turned up 2 major wiring looms chewed into :yuush:
I'm not quite sure how to combat this so that it doesn't happen again. Only once in 52 years has me hoping it may never happen again :roll:
Oh yeah.... and the repair bill today was $560.00
