From MeatEater article:

“Deer learn what you’re driving and don’t let you get close. In our work at Fort Drum [northern New York], the only way we can get close enough is with a Prius. We rigged it to go dark and without the engine noise. I don’t know why, but deer never get wise to the Prius.”

WTB this whoever is selling:

I find I can drive right past them in a tractor. Therefore I like my Lifted Volkswagen Bug TDI to be the perfect camera checking vehicle. Top drops and I pick up the camera shots.

They are quiet. I've driven one at a friend's shop. but I would never want one.

I set the goal of never driving a minivan or a Prius in my life. I worked for a tire shop for 6 months and some how made it through with only having to drive a minivan. Still Prius free.

IDK looks kinda masculine for the average meateater guy. I'm sure that 5.33" ground clearance is a game changer though.

In case you wondered what a 8pt whitetail looked like in the back of a Prius C (C for compact)

No Prius for me, I'm straight. Gotta Bakcou Mule 1000 instead. No noise, no scent, goes offroad too.
