That just needs a new headlight and some duct tape.

Amazing how fast it adds up. My daughter just had an accident in her Subaru Forrester. Didnt look nearly that bad and it was an $8500 repair.

You start breaking those fancy new headlights most vehicles have and the cost skyrockets.

Yup currently going through it myself. Going to work Monday morning and got a first for me. A deer running full spend ran into the side of my truck. Havent seen any numbers yet but the side has to be fixed and repainted.

Just punched one out myself Saturday night. Luckily the only damage was a broken fog lamp and as I was beating around through the woods Saturday it may have been broken before. That makes number 11 for me and once hit 6 inside of six months. I feel for you guys

Just my truck back from the body shop last Friday from a deer strike.

It'll be the last time I use a body shop recommended by the insurance company.

I have been extremely lucky. I have had dozens of near deer misses and only hit 2 deer. I did $6.34 damage to an old Crown Victoria, with a push bar on the front by breaking a piece of plastic that went around a head light. The other deer I hit folded the mirror in on my Saturn causing no damage.
