Yeah I guess overall it took the lick pretty good. I'm just glad I didn't center punch the deer, that would have probably torn the car all to hell and possibly come in the windshield.
Got the estimate today $5500. The insurance company refuses to replace the hood and fender, they said they could be repaired. I know the hood and fender can be repaired but I don't like it. All I can say is it better be perfect or I won't accept it and we will be going rounds.
I can see me throwing the deer in the car and taking it with me. I would be like the movie Tommy Boy, the damn thing would wake up and tear up the inside of the car to go with the outside. :headbonk:
I pulled over about 50 yards past where I hit it. I didn't even go back and look, I was so mad if I had gone back I probably would have put 6 rounds of .45's in it, thats all my xds holds.
Thank goodness, no airbags deployed. That probably would have scared the crap out of me if they had. It sounded like I got into the wall at Darlington when I hit it.
I don't know which got hurt worse, Black Betty or my feelings. I can't wait to see how much the estimate is. I told them I did not won't anything repaired, it had to be replaced if it is bent or damaged in any way. They agreed.
Back when I worked for a dealership, I used to see those on a lot of customer cars. We towed a car in one day that had hit a deer, there was the whistles mashed back into the a/c condenser and radiator. I guess that deer was deaf. LOL :shrug:
:rant:They showed up today right after I took the car to the body shop due to the suicidal deer. Probably be weeks before I can put it on, car will be in body shop purgatory.:rant:
