    So a few weeks ago my fiance got in a wreck in my 06 Tundra, it got totaled by the insurance company due to price of repair. was able to get a 2013 Taco to replace it and quickly fell in love. I will have had the truck 1 week tomorrow and I hit a freaking deer last night!! I can't win for losing!!

    It looks like it's all cosmetic damage. No structural supports or anything else was damaged. The deer's rear legs hit the headlight the rest of the body went to the left fender, deer then went under the tires.

    Did you at least keep the deer? Even bumper deer taste good.
