I had a car like that. I named it "Piece of Overpriced Shit" because Christine is too pretty a name to use on a Piece of Overpriced Shit.
Sell it! Sell it! You got a Carmax up there?

I have a buddy who has killed four deer with his car. His brother has been hunting for years and has never got one. Deer go out of their way to get in front of PEP's cars. He was driving south on Kanawha blvd, which has an interstate running beside it on one side, and the Kanawha river on the other. A deer jumped the burm beside the road and dived into the side of his car. Mangled his dodge colt from the headlight to the back bumper. He talks about getting a rifle and evening the score during hunting season.

Not quite sure whatcha mean, Daryus. I've got the smallest tires the dealership will put on Jeeps (which are still rather sizeable). I plan on upgrading to something a bit bigger next fall. Um, I'll go check next time I go out to my Jeep. Do you drive a Jeep? They're great vehicles. I highly recommend them.
Deer are really a problem here in the DC/Baltimore area. There have been quite a number of accidents caused by deer running across the highways during rush hour. I think more of 'em get killed hitting cars then during hunting season. The state has sponsered "hunt days" specificly to cull the deer population, but those don't work too well. PG county puts some cops with silenced rifles in the parks some nights to try and get some. Fucking deer. Grrr.
Speak of the devil! I just got a "4-wheel drive" magazine, so I'm going to go look for a grill to mount on the front of my Jeep. Friday night kind of drove home the point that I need something big and bulky to knock deer (or little children) out of the way with.

Kosh, your mate has killed 4 deer, and he wants to get a rifle and even the score in hunting season? By doing what? Shooting car drivers?

Apparently the deer managed to smack the side of the Jeep a bit too ... gotta get my left side turn signal cover replaced.

He wants to pay back the deer population for fucking up his cars. Two of them hit his Colt, and two hit his old Isuzu pickup. Both are cheap made, and took much damage.

Not at all, there are many design differences between the two. Plus, I don't think a bentley-owner could get a bentley-mechanic to travel to his location and fix his car if it broke down...

Yep, Fiat's are really good cars. just because they haven't got 4-6 litre engines and are actually economical to drive doesm't mean they are bad cars.
We have had a Ritmo, a Regata, two Tempra's and a Marea. Lovely cars.
Re: Deer hitting cars I thought that one could put revolving blades on the front and sides of one's car in certain states. Or was that flamethrowers?

Both actually, that way you can slice and cook the vension all at once....

Strangly enough, the last one walked away from it. Speed limit is about fourty in the area, and the deer bounced off the car, and took off. Probably sore the next morning though.

My deer tried to walk off. It didn't make it far, not being able to stand on its front legs and all. Poor thing...
Daryus, do you own a Jeep?
