My Car After the Deer..

[howardj]

It's really not that bad.. I mentioned it in another thread, just thought I'd share some pics before I get it fixed..
I was going down a highway, 60ish, I saw the Bucks' eye, and it stopped, I slowed down anyway, than he started darting toward the road when I got closer to him, so I floored it into the next lane (if I woulda tried to brake, he woulda went onto my hood).. He hit my passenger side mirror, then his antlers went into my Front Passenger side door, and then his head slid all the way down my car..
I'm kinda glad my car is dirty so I could tell how it all happened

For all of you animal lover's the deer survived..
No dinner tonight

The buck was atleast a 10 pointer, by the way.

HAHA That's exactly what I thought when I turned around to see if it was laying anywhere

Sorry for the damage dude. I live in deer country, so I know what you are dealing with.

Yikes, sorry to hear. What these the Grand Am you asked on here if it was a good buy? (at least I think it was you?)

 

[howardj]

yes it was

 

[howardj]

I'm very proud of my dirt

Ah man, I am so sorry that you hit a dear. You are lucky though. My ex-husband hit a FAWN with my new car and the whole side was crunched in. The deer still had spots on it, a baby! This was several years ago. You got away with not much damage. It still stinks though. Do you have collision?

 

[howardj]

I have full coverage on her, so yes.
Not too worried about the dents, they are smaller than the one that was on the car when I got it.. I just need a darn mirror!

This is my wife's car after a deer strike.

 

[howardj]

Ouch!

Your suppose to aim when their 10pts or above....

Damage is nothing compared to what could have been.

ooch.
I don't have the pics but a deer caused me 3800 in damage on one of our cars.

My work truck has had $14,000 in deer related repairs, I drive a highway almost every day that on average during the fall there are probably 5-10 deer hit every day in 70 mile stretch.
