I hate deer

[MakoMike]

I've hit two in my life. One in my wife's car, did about $2 grand worth of damage to the fron fenders and hood, came out of nowhere. I was doing about 35 on a back country road, next thing I know there is a deer on the hood of the car. A couple of years ago I hit one with my truck (chevy silverado) only damage wa one cross piece knocked out of the grill, I guess the giher bumper was the key, knocked the thing about 1/4 mile down the road doing about 30 MPH.

[5/0]

Glad to hear you are ok,what an inconvenience to get into a vehicle accident not to mention total it,but worst of all being 5+ hrs. from home.

I hit a good sized deer on the X press way just under the Furnace Brook Pkwy I was driving a 1985 F-150 good size truck anyway I hit it broad side on the drivers smashed my windshield bent the pillar my over sized side view mirror ripped it open and then my rear bumper caught the rest of it and completely gutted it.
I lucked out that was it.

A moose will peel the top right off an average sized car.

Spent enough winters living in the White Mountains to see what happens.

And came close a couple times to nailing one.

Rt16 from Jackson, NH to Gorham, NH might as well be THE gauntlet.
