That's pretty bad news there. Good thing it wasn't an Obama-mobile. :|

My wife drives an full size SUV, and I a One ton truck. Our unofficial family health insurance policy states "the bigger the better" (car wise).

The deer in our nick of the woods are hood height so just stay on the road and knock-em down if they get in the way. In the Challenger or on the bike,, well..... :blushes:

Watching for animals is always on my mind. A few years ago I hit a deer at 70 MPH. Totaled my car. I hate to think what an Elk would have done.
