Haven't updated my 5 since new. No problems.

Good points, the guard's main mounts are low and bolted to the sub frame. Depends on location and type of impact what will happen. Could be worse and cause more damage or nothing. Was going to get the front of the van repainted and guard installed during the planned Holiday break. Now have...

Ran a load from Flowery Branch, GA to Livona, MI, picked 2100 last night. Our first revinue since dropping on the 13th of Nov. Yes we are now sporting a Deer guard.

We hope so, should be done on the 22nd.

Update from Panama City Beech FL. Cleaned out all of our stuff and put it in storage yesterday. Three years since the van has been completely emptyed. Just about filled a 5x5x8 storage unit. Now it's in the body shop for two weeks. Hope the insurance check is good!

Found a local shop in Panama City, that is thinking $ 6,500 cash. Not to fix it like new, but useable. A voiding the insurance company didn't cross my mind. Just goes to prove, the only thing cheep in this operation is me.

You like their body shop?

They offered a salvage value, so I basicly bought it back. Now to get to the body shop, DSC in Dallas.

Still out of service, Panama City Beech, FL. Sent insurance company estement for body damage from deer accedent on the 16th. Yesterday the 28th got the news that it's a total. Plan is to keep the van and fix most of the damage.

Good job, some shops do care about fixing the problem. Some become the problem.

I have not figured out that picture thing yet. It says they are to big. Yep, a vicious head BUTT.

The Deer didn't make it underneath, but good advice.

Dallas, day three, got body shop estement forwarded to Ins. Company. Had tires rotated, shopped for oil change. Just might hear from Ins. company review board tomorrow. 12,600 buckaroos to fix the body damage.

Let's just say, she was claiming the right away.

MT, in El Paso. Time to fix the damage to the Van, from the Deer strike. So far the plan is to get a repair estement in the Dallas area. Haven't had to deal with kind of thing away from home base before. Any past experiences you hands could share?

Kinda, she hit head to headlight. Just a bit of the hood. Fender pushed into the door, both side panels wrinkled. Grill untouched, of course light assembly toast. Main wire harness good, in engine bay.

West bound on I 70, MM 275, in KA. Bam, Bambi comes out of the south. Got in a really good head butt, then bounced down the side. The Pampered Princess fights on, to El Paso.

Loaded drop Mon in El Paso. Had the big bait down!

I hear ya, glass is still half full! Back in my fishing days we spent 16 days, without being able to haul our crab pots. That was double tough.

Loaded yesterday, Paducah, KY to Itasca, IL. Kind of slow for us this week. Drop and hope is the plan. 19 degrees, yep long pants came out of the clothes cubby.
