I just got off the Narrows Bridge and was taking an off ramp. My speed was about 55. I hit the brakes and steared the wrong way. Who knows how fast I was going when I* hit it. There was big thunk and I drug it a ways. It was not pretty. It was alive when I walked back to it but, died shortly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
I'm OK but, kind of shook up. The car is toast. The air bags didn't deploy but, the right front quarter panel is folded, hoods toast, grill is gone, headlight is gone, radiator is holed, alignment is off and I think the front end is pushed to the left. The car is a 95 with 148 thou, no collision coverage. Luckily, I have a body shop guy as a patient this morning. I bet I'll be getting a salvage yard to tow it. I guess I'll be shopping for a car this afternoon Dave |

Sorry to hear that Dave... scary too. I have not hit a deer in awhile but I remember what it felt like (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
If you are a subby fan like I am... check out the 08 Outback... just picked mine up last weekend and I love it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) I got the PZEV model (partial zero emissions vehicle). Web site says it is the cleanest vehicle they ever sold... possibly even cleaner than most of the hybrids. I did not buy it for this reason but it was nice to have the choice. Happy hunting....ewww bad pun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
