Ohio wildlife has tried to destroy some of my past cars as well. It could have been worse. At least it wasn't a deer.

I can see raccoon goo is still on your car. The raccoon must have bought the farm. Glad you are ok the can be fixed.

 Dam, I never realized the furry little buggers could do so much damage. I guess I'll think twice now whenever I see one on the side of the road...not accusing you or anything, but how fast were you going when it hit?

My wife hit a racoon with her Malibu came up under the bumper and hit the radiator. Right around 4 grand to fix, I would say your lucky, and definitely better off then the racoon.

Yup, I learned a long time ago, what looks like a cute, soft, furry animal, is actually solid as a rock when you hit them with a car.
I hit a ringneck pheasant once with my Silverado pickup, it hit right where the hood meets the grille. Dented my hood and busted up my grille. |
