First Complaint

I finally have one complaint on my month old rig. I murdered a deer with my bumper last night around 25mph and the drivers side of the bumper got pushed in quite a bit. I'm a little dissapointed with that as I've ran over deer with My 86 Blazer at higher speeds with no evidence at all. Hopefully a tree and my tow strap will restore my pride today. I must say I didn't enjoy the actual hit but running it over was pretty cool. By the way this is my girlfriends fault. One deer ran out about 40 ft ahead and she said " I wonder what it would be like to hit a deer?" With in 2 seconds her wish was granted with a mysterious deer charging at full speed out of some brush. Any thoughts on her punishment?

I'm thinking she should cook you a nice venison dinner and wash and wax the rig.

The tow strap saved the day. There is a dent in the bumper but is not very noticable. While I was at it I cut a hole providing air to the filter. Take a look at the little slit the factory gives us. Anyway I have her convinced that it was her doing and she actually offered to pay for half.
