Lousy break brother. As long as everyone walked away unhurt, da fish will still be there another time. Good luck

Glad you are OK. I hit a deer Nov 2 and that 120 lb deer did just shy of 16000 damage to my truck

Sorry to hear about your bad luck. Glad you came out with only the injuries you have. I hope you find a replacement for your Tracker. I drove one all over the place in the state and in the woods for 17 years before selling it.

I hit 3 at once on the I95 years ago, I think I was in New York.. busted up my landcruiser pretty good but she got me home… just be happy it wasn’t a 800# moose in Maine.. a banged up knee would be the least of your worries.
