Living in SouthWestern Ohio, this is always a great fear for me, especially this time of year. I took out a 12 point Buck in an old Ch*vy Malibu when I was in High School, and if my engine hood had not flown open, I'm afraid Mr Deer would have come through my windshield and impaled me with any one of those 12 points. It totalled the car. I have always wondered how safe my Vanagon would be in a head-on collision with a deer or something else, bigger and gasoline powered. Anyone have any REAL LIFE stories about head ons in their Vanagon and how you and it fared??
