Some deer
I got REALLY lucky in the 4kq (then NA). I was driving with this hot chick down a back twisty road when I deer went right in front of us. I clipped its leg with the drivers front part of the bumper. Got out, no damage to the car, but some blood. If I was going faster I would have hit it head on.
Then, in my old 85 4k I RAN OVER a deer going 70 on the intersate. It ripped the exhaust from the cat back clean off, and there were guts/blood/hair EVERYWHERE under the car and hanging from some of the engine brackets. The guys at the exhaust shop were like "Well boy wadda ya hit??" Car ran fine, just reeked for a few days
Been pretty lucky living out in the country and not having any major accidents.

2 deer... 2 seperate years, one in the 4000, one in the a-6.
The doe that I hit in the A6 was big, and did $5800.- damages to the car. the doe I hit w/ my 4000 was smaller, and broke the grill, corner light housing, both lights and a small dent in the hood. I made no claim on it to my ins co... knowing they would total the car. I had spares of everything, so fixed it myself.
I don't want to hit any more deer!

Small stuff (knock on fake wood desk top)....
a squirrel, a couple of birds and a rabbit in the desert west of Las Vegas in a rental car....I'm sure Gil Grissom is hot on my trail for that one.
Cheers!

Neither - I first read "hit a deer while driving a hot chick" - I need more sleep...and more coffee.
Mike is a babe magnet (judging from his fb pictures) as well as a deer magnet. He must have been what Tom Petty was singing about...in that song....with the Kim Basinger video....Kim Basinger......mmmmmmm.....where was I?
OK...I'm off to brew some more "Black Juice from Hell" (office coffee)....and maybe a cold shower.
Cheers!

Had a duck do a kamikaze mission into my grill once . .
This big white duck flew down outta nowhere and hit my car head-on while I was doing 40mph back in Indianapolis. I nearly wrecked the car it startled me so much! Took out my grill and the driver's headlight that was only one week old! ('85 Jetta GLI)
