$1000 racoon

A few months ago my mom was driving at night in Northern Ontario. She saw a racoon, and the damn thing ran in front of her. It got hit, and she says she felt its body hit below her feet. The thing has got to be dead as a doornob. Anyway, it cracked the plastic fender skirt thingy, and it would be 1 grand (Canadian) to get it fixed, so we didnt. You cant really super-duper tell, but its there.

my $1500 racoon

the goddamn thing was the size of a bull mastiff. Smashed up the front bumper cover, smashed the A/C cooler, bowed in the vertical engine support bar, and sheared off the studs that keep the front valance undercover on. Can't get it fixed until Dec. 10 either

Man that sounds as bad as my step dads runin with a deer. insted of hitting the deer the deer hit him. it smashed in the driver side of the door bad enogh to have the entire door replaced all the electrical and the rear door had a dent in it so that had to be all redone. in the end it cost him 2500 dolars.
