I-77 in Va..came out of heavily wooded area running. Very little to no reaction time for me. The RL held up well to the impact I thought. Buckled hood a, grill and radiator support damage, passenger side fender and headlight damage, and plastic bumper cover damage..leaking some transmission fluid and coolant from somewhere too...maybe the trans cooler ( has separate factory trans cooler ) or radiator connection. Impact pushed in the ac coil and trans cooler into the radiator.
Cruise was set at 62 mph prior to the impact but what braking I got done dropped speed to maybe 50-55 mph range.
Again, I thought the RL held up well to that impact....deer not so lucky as the investigating officer put it out of it's misery.
Anyone else here hit a deer with their RL? Just wondering how other RL's have held up to it.
