Deer Vs Mustang

[Mike A.]

Went deer hunting on the way to work yesterday. Luckily there was traffic, I'm normally going much faster through the stretch of road where I hit it.

Bumper/grill is cracked in several places, fog light assembly is busted up, headlight assembly mounts are broken, drivers fender is dented and cracked and the hook is a bit tweek. Hopefully the hood just needs to be straightened, there isn't any gap on the passender side between the hood and fender anymore.

At least I'll have a new front end that is chip free!

I hate, hate, hate deer. Just hit one with my tacoma a couple weeks ago. Stupid dash cam wasn't filming for some reason, so I didn't even get the memento.

Your pics aren't showing up for me.

That sucks! My dad just hunted a 10 pointer with his honda element... totaled car and my cousin is having deer for dinner for the next few months lol

Black bears are worse.

I hate 'em too.
I had one run in to the side of my '16 a while back and had to have a new quarter panel put on the car.

Sheesh. I used to live up in the Sierras back in CA and I've seen what some deer can do to a car. Damn buggers. I've seen a few over here in UT since I'm close to the base of the Wasatch mountains but I can literally probably count all my own personal sightings on one hand in the 4-5 years now that I've been out here. Can't decide if that's a good thing or bad because even though I know they make it down to this area, because they're so few and far between I probably won't be keeping a close eye out when one does run out in front of me.

That sucks, hope the repair happens for you in a timely manner.

Wait, you went to where the deer live, in order to shoot them, and you are angry because one nailed you first. Now, I am not against hunting, but seems like fair play to me. Maybe next time take a Jeep.

Had a run-in with one a few weeks ago while driving at night in the mountains in western NC. I was speeding, but not being reckless. Sure enough I see one wondering along the side of the road so I slow down. Continue to slow down then of course she decides to jump out in the road as I get closer. Slowed down a good bit and veered to the right as much as I could. Only hear a light brush on the side of the car. Pull over and get out. Deer is gone and I see nothing on the side of my car. Get home and the only thing I can find is a few swipes through the dirt on the side. Very fortunate. If I hadn't noticed it I'm sure I would have smacked it.

I don't know what it is with these four legged idiots. Every time they go on a running fit they head for the road. lol

They would probably take the deer in an ambulance and take you to jail.

Years ago I encountered a couple of highway patrol officers at a diner laughing their heads off. Two guys hit a deer with their car...decided to have it for dinner. Dragged it into the rear seat...the deer woke up and the passenger had to cut its throat with a hunting knife. Headliner torn up and blood all over the interior. If you don't believe it...I still have a photo my dad took of two deer hunters that had a small cow strapped to their car.

That'll buff right out.

I don't think he was really going hunting...... says he was on his way to work....
