Default Deer+Car= :-(

Sad day, I hit a deer with my beloved hatch saturday night. Going about 45mph, it ran out of no where. Hit the front and landed on the roof. Insurance people are coming out today to check it out.

Before.

p.s If your all for animal rights and against hunting and guns and the NRA and all that crap, than I hope your car gets hit by a deer too. Stupid worthless animals!

No free meat, I hit it too hard and ruptured the intestines and ruined the meat. I think I have a pic of the deer that i could post tho. It was a big doe.

lol Yea i've thought about it. The check engine light came on right after i hit it, and it started running really rough. I'm not sure what could have happened. I hope to find out soon what insurance is gonna do, either total it (i hope) or pay to fix it. If they total it they pay for the car and I get to keep it. I'm just glad neither me or my fiancee got hurt, It could have been a lot worse. I thought for sure the deer was gonna come through the windsheild as hard as it hit it.
