    Whaaaaat? Crazy. That's exactly where I hit this one, but it was just last night.

    I was going double that speed at impact (roughly 84mph). Dash cam video at night was hard to see for sure but I think it was a little spike or young buck.

    I'd hate to see what that would've looked like if you didn't have the bumper. Deer almost would've ended up as a passenger!

    We get quite a few deer up here in Black Eagle, I have them in my yard every year. I had one with a broken leg right outside my door a couple years ago,I had to call FWP to have them put it down :(

    Took the deer's head clean off. Coworker drove by after it happened. At that speed it took me 1/8 - 1/4 mile or so to pull over safely.

    Doesn't surprise me. Seen quite a few big bucks out in that area in the last few months.

    Bet that was fun to clean up. Couldn't have gone much faster though...

    That’s just for those fake minimalists that go tiny house because it’s the bro/hipster thing to do. They also ride single gear bikes in the middle of the lane.

    Anyone in the Missoula area recommend a good place to mount tires? GF needs some new rubber on her corolla before winter hits. In the past I've always gone to discount but they don't have one in Missoula (yet). Schwab's does good work too, but they always seem to charge more. Plan is to order the tires from discount and have a local shop mount/ balance them.

    I’ve used tire buyer and had them shipped to firestone. $68 for mount and balance. I’ve used them probably 6 times for different projects and never had a issue. Just my 2cents

    I would recommend Whalen Tire or Scotts's EQ. I have had good luck with both of these shops.

    All my tabs are gone. Except 2. haha. I bought it that way just didn't know it until I went to do some work on the thing. Just not a priority repair.
