No offense, but not exactly the sort of reliable source I'd use for researching the history of mustanging methods.  Having tried to chase livestock with vehicles, I can tell you that even less agile creatures such as cows are pretty tough to capture with a wheeled vehicle....

This technique is used in _The Misfits_ (Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe,

circa 1960).  Copies should be available in any sizeable video store.  If

I recall correctly (it's been at least 10 years since I watched it), they

roped them off the back of a truck.  Pretty harrowing.
