Hey the unknown comedian!!
My little bro has hit several deer!! One time one even ran into the side of his truck!! Now that's talent! A few years ago my wife wanted an Explorer or a Blazer. I found a Blazer with a bad motor and a good motor to go with it. I bought it fixed it and gave it to her for CHRISTmas. She had it 2 weeks and the trans DIED! The reason I didnt look for an Explorer was everyone said they had weak transmissions. (Go Figure)!! I hated driving that thing!! So when she said she wanted another Taurus, I jumped right on that chance!!!
Seriously though is she alright?

yes she's alright. The deer didn't fare too well. Oddly, we've talked about selling it and getting a gas friendly commuter car (the saturn is getting old) and then this happened. Not any real damage, but will need a new grill and turn signal assemblies.

Didn't Jeff Foxworthy do a bit on painting flames on the side of the minivan to make it look cool? I'm not sure painting is going to help you....Maybe some lake pipes, or a loud stereo with a car sounds CD.

You know we are all kidding, I hope! It's just that the Ford Enthusiast forums are a strange place to see one of these. A Shoebox Ford, yes, a Shoebox Toyota, no....
I'm sure we are all envious of your gas mileage...

No Wait! I know where I've seen that before. Isn't that the little car at the circus that drives up and about 30 clowns come out of?
Kidding yes! But that vehicle has something that my F1 doesn't....MILEAGE! And right now I think you have the laugh on me (especially with me getting 8 MPG on "Ethyl").

PS I still think maybe the lake pipes........
