My wife volunteers for an organization that grants wishes to kids with life threatening conditions. Each Christmas they deliver gifts to children that have been past recipients. Today was a beautiful day so we decided to drive the Cobra to deliver a few gifts. We enjoyed about 6 hours of driving and around 150 miles for the day. Of course there is always a story that goes along with any adventure. The last house we visited was pretty far out in the country. We had to go through a gate and drive about 1/4 mile down a gravel road to get to the house. I waited in the car as my wife went up to the door. After a few minutes I heard a noise. I looked up and was greeted by a very large bull staring back at me. He walked around the car as if to say "what the heck is making all this noise". I wasn't sure what he was going to do but I'm certain he outweighed the car, so I just sat there quietly. I guess he decided I didn't pose a threat and walked away after a while. As everyone says, if there's not a photo it didn't happen. These cars always attract attention, just not always the kind you want.

Ha! That IS a big bull.

I was at the National Bison preserve once driving around in a Chevy Cavalier and was stopped by a Bull that was clearly 3x bigger than my car.

Great pic

Lucky for you that it was one large bull and not several small goats ... those little dudes are mischievous and athletic, you might have had one wind up inside the cockpit with you if not standing on the hood or trunk lid.

Great photo by the way.

That was totally a "Can I drive it?" look. There's one in every crowd.

You're lucky he didn't decide to hump the hood scoop!

Awesome photo, but I would have believed you without it, I had the bison episode in Yellowstone...on a motorcycle. I was on a 77’ Goldwing with a big black front fairing and it was rutting season - pucker factor 6.5!
