Letzrockexpress - Oh hell yea that will get you honorary Red Neck Status!!! On top of that I'll include Alabama Redneck status for usin yur home to bag a couple. Got the heads mounted overhead do ya? Get'er Done!!!!!

Back in the late 80's I took out a Key Deer in Everglades late one night. Got out to look at it feeling real depressed that I had just taken out a "large dog". Changed my opinion once I saw the damage to the Jeep. If it wasn't dead it would have been real quick. From then on I was called the Bambi Killer at work.

Now I would bow in presence of true greatness if TJ tied the deer to the hood of his sprinter so he could have some venison while waiting on the repairs.....of course we would need a pic.

I just got my insurance check for my deer hit two weeks ago. It's going to cost me 1500 out of pocket if I want to get the van restored to it's original look. I'm not quite sure it's even worth the investment at this point in time.

I am thinking about just getting the A/C condensor fixed, putting a used bumper, bumper cover, grille on and just leaving some of the under part that is smashed in and also leaving the fender with a dent in it. If not; i'll have to drive it the way it is with no AC for a few weeks and put up another 1500 to fix it or just go to work in a straight truck until the end of the year.

I'm not sure what to do at this point but the clock is ticking. Do you guys have any advice?

I wish you luck with your repairs TJP. It seems like deer hits are on the rise these days. They really need to eliminate those 1k dedutables "and stop writing up insurance estimates using after-market parts!" I hope you get your truck fixed soon TJP. It just makes me even sicker to have to see another EO member deal with such a traumatic event. I still feel bad for killing that deer even though it wrecked my front end.

If you get tired of loosing or winning money on the strip you can take a day trip up to Reno. There's also one that takes you around Lake Tahoe and to an old silver mine town. Go up in the Stratosphere at night to the observation deck. The lights are amazing. Day trip to Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon too. Take the humvee or helicopter trip in the Grand Canyon. Either one you take be sure to tell the driver or pilot that they must be to scared to push it, they'll scare the $(## out of you!

Ready?

Do you own a truck?

I would expect a truck to take a week but a sprinter, that should be in and out in two days.
