So far I've only run over some already flattened roadkill... I would have hit a hydraulic jack that fell off the back of a truck a few days ago if I didn't have such cat-like reflexes

The other day in my DD beater I ran over a muffler that fell off the ricer directly in front of me. I was thinking hahaha, I still have a better car and i just destroyed your $150 fart can.

I ran over an armadillo (part of one, anyway) driving from Austin to College Station. I didn't bother to stop. When I arrived, I had to extract it, which I captured on video. Notice the sound when the meat hits the floor

Yeah, this is all i've got. Sorry for the belated post. I was just trying to figure out how many others have ran over something stupid. I cannot wait to get the car on a lift so I can get the rest of the limbs out. I am still pissed 6 hours later.

Great videos and pics. If I have anything to take a pic of other than the bent bumper I'll post them.

I've ran over a couple of squirrels that thought they are faster than me.

Also, 3 or 4 days ago, I was getting on the highway behind a van with a couple of ladders strapped to the roof. As we were accelerating, one of the ladders fell off the roof but i swerved around it.

And an armadillo??? holly hell. thats like a rock. poor animal. did you throw it on the barbie for dinner?

Damn, that's crazy.

I ran into a piece of particle board at 85mph and it disintegrated, but luckily never hit anything too solid.
