Hit ANOTHER deer!
DadGummit! Last year I did 900 bucks damage to my 05 Mustang.
Just last evening I passed the guard shack while going in to work doing about 15 mph over the speed bumps,then as I accelerated up to 30 or so, a stupid suicidal deer ran across in front of me.
I got on the brakes hard and turned left. I clipped its butt with the right front of my beautiful,no-rust,great paint Aerostar.
So the damage is light, but a slight bend at the top peak of the fender above the parking light,and the broken lights and assemblies have to be fixed. DOGGONE IT! don-ohio

Not below 30 mph,which I was going over speed bumps and the deer was the other side of the guard shack.
I took it to the body shop today,and he can't get to it for roughly 3 weeks. So I went to the local `pick and pull' and got the parking/turn signal housing.
I ordered a NEW headlight /housing from O`reilly's and they'll have it tomorrow. About 90 bucks with tax.
It's my daily driver so I can't just sit on it for three weeks,yannow?
As far as deer alerts,they always work well above 30 mph for me. I have an electronic alert on the 05 Mustang which sounds off at all speeds. don-ohio (:^)
