True. I crashed into one somewhere in Iowa, we weren't going fast, maybe 45 mph, the deer probably jumped up from the ditch besides the road. Poor deer. Great people in the village where we ended up with the damaged car, the local bodyshop guy opened up for us in the middle of the night, pulled the front more or less back into shape and plugged a hole in the rad and the valve cover. Total charge for 6 hours of work + materials: $0. So we could continue our trip to friends in the Rocky Mountains with only a slight delay when we originally thought we'd have to abort the trip right there.
