Yeah, I'm lucky he didn't come through the windshield. I think if I had hit him more in the center of the car, or even on the driver side he might have. If you look close at the road pic you can see faint skid marks. The deer was running from left to right, and I tried moving to the left to go behind him. That's how I caught him on the passenger side and not "dead center".

It's funny, several people have asked if the windshield has tint. It's just the reflection and the other windows being tinted. I don't remember what % it is. It's illegal to have tint on the windshield below the AS1 line. It's also illegal to have a light tint over the license plates. Found that out the hard way. Wanted to keep the "Backed Out" look and put a sheet over the plates like covers(my tail lights, side markers, and back-up lights are all blacked out).

Poor deer didn't even have time to kiss his *** good-bye.

By the way, how far apart was its *** from its kisser when the parts stopped?

The girl you were going to see must have been really hot to risk life and limb going 120+ in deer country. So what is the answer to the question asked? Did you or didn't you complete your mission?

Car isn't done yet, it's going to be a while. I dropped it off at the shop a week ago and haven't gotten the estimate yet. Even though I miss it I told him there is no hurry and to take his time. He knows how picky I am. My daughter keeps asking when it will be done too because I keep stealing her Miata(I know, I know, at least it's fun to drive).

And yes, I made my destination, She tried hard to make me forget my troubles!

btw-dead horse smiley is fantastic!
