Ran into a deer on Tuesday. I am being optimistic, The car is driveable and the deer died on impact. That means I won right?

Sorry to hear, but glad you're okay. Your car actually looks surprisingly well intact for hitting a deer. You should have seen my S-10 when my wife hit a deer in it, the front end was obliterated. Your car should be easily repaired and I'm sure it'll look/drive just like new when it's all taken care of. Good luck!

Glad you are okay, the car is repairable and not as bad as I thought after reading the story.

That must have been scary! Glad that you are OK and that your Challenger is driveable. Good luck with the insurance-company. And yes, you won!

That is really too bad. Those deer seem to come out of nowhere. Sorry for you and sorry for the deer. Looks like it is definitely fixable. Good luck!!!

I've seen much worse damage, how fast were you going when you hit it? I had one make a kamikaze run at my Challenger last year, I was going down the interstate at 70 mph late at night and saw a deer cross in front way up ahead so I started slowing down and then it stopped on the shoulder and looked my way and just ran straight at me!!! I was able to slam on brakes and swerve and barely missed it but I thought it was going to hit the side of my car but it didn't. Deer are crazy!!!

Glad you are ok, sorry about the Challenger. Like someone said earlier, the car don't look too bad after hitting a dear. I had a 2005 Suburban, and I hit a 4x8 piece of sheet rock that was blow up off the interstate by a semi, it took everything out above the bumper including the radiator.
