We moved to Idaho Falls in January of last year. You know you are Norewegian when you move from Arizona to Idaho in the middle of winter. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />
There was no doubt it was a deer. Buck Mulie, had big buds on its head prolly would have had a great rack (OF HORNS!! Jeeese)
I dunno if the engine was damaged at all. No oil on the ground and it was running when I parked. The passenger side door hits the fender, but I think that it's cause the fender is pushed back. It's prolly fixable, and if the engine is damaged, its a great time for the Northstar swap. Trouble is I STILL don't have a SHOP set up. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
Thanks again for all the kind words from everybody. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />
See Ya Bruce

Bruce... sorry to see and hear about the mishap. Stupid deer anyway, didnt he know to look both ways before crossing??? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
Rack, you said rack, thats uh cool and stuff... got pics? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />
Like Jeff said, you were missed... although there in spirit Jeff queued up some of your theme song while doing the spotters challenge and we, for a moment, had you there vicariously.
But shoot, you dont have to wait until nov to come wheel with us. You can come down in Aug to CO'Zu. THEN come out to moab in Nov. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />
Glad everyone is okay!

Sorry to hear of it! I know how it feels....
My sub frame structure up front was damaged similarly when i got into my fender bender. Just took a large rubber mallet to it, took out the come a long and strapped it to a tree and started pulling. Withthe right amount of finesse and some propper MacGuyvering, you can get it back to new pretty easy. Then just get a new hood, grille, and headlights, new fenders and some herculiner, and youll be good as gold. Prolly wont take $8500 to do that, either.
Good luck! -J <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
