Look What Ran Into Me, Or What I Ran Into

View attachment 67322 Maybe we can start a thread about this. Sometimes it can't be avoided or helped. Sometimes it happens due to no fault of our own, but it does happen. Coming back from Cape May, traveling on the parkway at night , I saw something fly in front of the truck. Found out the next day what it was, A bat! Poor little guy. Anyone else ? Doesn't have to be an animal, maybe a fence, hydrant, anything. Not trying to be gory or gross, just curious for entertainment's sake.

Whats that grille?

I've been lucky having lightly grazed a few deer before (albeit while being sideways from slamming on the breaks). A friend of mine's wife hit a coyote a few months back. They repaired the damage and she hit another one in almost the same stretch of road about a week later

That sux! A lot of damage? Coyotes are the same size as a big dog? Or bigger?

That's the HD grill. Got it from an 02 Silverado. Bow tie is now black.

Pitch black driving my BMW 318i. I narrowly missed a MOOSE by near inches thanks to my cat like reflexes and a tight car....gf and I just looked at each other for a moment after and didn't say a word the rest of the trip.

Holy shit! ! A moose??!! I can't even imagine what that would've done to you, your gfx and your car. What state was that?

Just last night on HWY 50 came as close as I ever want, to hitting a freaking Horse!!! 4 lane Highway and I saw a Ford on the opposite of the road going gotta slow?? So I lifted and a freaking horse shot the gap????

Fortunately I was doing about 55 and not 70 ... stupid horse!

Province of Ontario. Ya moose are over 1000 lbs. We're just like "Did that seriously just happen"? Was doing 55 as well

And you just reminded me of my horse experience. Just a Sunday drive through some small towns and was passing two people riding horses. Well I guess I spooked the horse and he damn near bucked his rider and jumped onto the road. Thankfully didn't hit him for his sake, the riders sake and the tahoes

Was in a truck I had and saw something fly in front then saw a feather explosion from my grill. Looked at it a few hours later and it was a pigeon. Left it there for a few days as a trophy because it happened in a residential area so I was going slow.
