I interpret those signs as "idiot on board".If the vehicle is in a serious accident,the rescue personnel may expose themselves to extra risk to find a baby that may have been thrown clear in the accident.If there was no baby in the vehicle,they are wasting their time and exposing themselves to risk for nothing.

FWIW: I look for car seats and diaper bags, and we always look for "ejecties" if damage to vehicle might indicate a possible flying passenger.
 
G/G - That DU-HA looks pretty slick but it is pretty pricey who carries them locally or do I have to order them from the web? Did you get anything for the bed like the Ford Cargo Management system?

A crane may be a bridge too far ... we usually clean animals in the garage on a gambrel hooked to a joist. It would be better to start the initial processing in the field (could leave the head, skin, and hooves in the field (that is a PITA to clean up in his garage). If I had a winch could I not just get a pulley and hook the pulley to a tree? If this is the case, getting a winch is starting to make more sense...

Why mess up the shop, when the coyotes will do it for you in the field? The rig I've used is about 6' long with a 90deg to slide into the receiver. The top has an angle with a recycled boat winch to a pulley. Having to find a tree, throw a rope up, run a pulley, etc is more work than might be necessary.

I have seen winches on 2" receiver tubes. One guy had his INSIDE the bed on the back rack to drag up whatever critters he kilt'.
 
In addition to a lot of what has already been mentioned, I always keep a pair of binoculars on the dash for impromtu scouting sessions. Usually a fishing rod and tackle box in there somewhere as well.

I always keep a pair of binoculars in my jeep - not my best ones. Two nights ago someone broke into it and didn't steal them. :redface:
