Yeah really!!! How'd it work!? If it didn't, I'd say spend a few bucks on a bag of bird seed. Spread it in an area close to the truck to distract them from it. That should work!

Wish I had a suggestion..

Mines a target at work aswell..


From Ornithology.com
How can I get rid of problem birds?

Are birds nesting on your porch or in your eaves? Are they defecating on your car? Are there noisy flocks of birds disturbing you? First, be aware that virtually all birds are protected by federal law. You would be violating the law by harassing or harming birds. If they are truly a problem, contact your local wildlife official. In serious cases you may be able to get permission to take some action. Otherwise, try to understand that birds are just doing what they evolved to do and you are living in their habitat. Often,the problem is temporary. See this site for more information on problem birds. http://www.ornithology.com/backyard.html#problems

Looks like birds were made to **** on our trucks...
