Effing forest rats....

I popped one last week too.  Stupidest creatures on the planet. Jump
into the road then stop and look at you.

FWIW Vanagons are MUCH tougher than bays.  Hit a buck at about 10 mph
ten years ago in my bay.  Crumpled the entire nose.  Hit the doe last
week at about twenty mph.  Broke the lower grill a bit and popped a
piece off the l/h turn signal.  Moved the sheet metal between the
light and the grill back about a quarter of an inch. Looks like it'll
pop right back out.
