Default Bambi's Mother Arggh



Bambi's mother ran into the left front corner of our Camry last Wednesday. I didn't see her coming until she hit the side of the car, then all I saw was her head and about a foot of tongue as she passed by my windshield. Now Bambi is a orphan and I'm not sad at all . $2600 to fix her wayward gallop across the road. If I'd been driving just a little slower or she running a little faster it would sent her over our hood into the windshield which could have been very bad. Other than Bambi's mother no one was hurt and a change of underwear fixed our problem.

If a combo of all these whizz bangs met their claims you'd have to siphon gas out of your tank every second day and sell the excess horsepower on the third????
If your engine doesn't consume ANY oil it will seize???

I'm sure others will claim they helped but I'll go with my brother in laws results and our DNR (Department of Natural Resource) scientists analysis of them and say it's the deer that's in control.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

I hit a deer the night before Thanksgiving in '02. I was doing 75 mph on Interstate 25 in a '91 4Runner, and I hit him perfectly. When I hit him, his head bent over the front of the hood and took out my bugshield. The front 6" of my 4Runner was pretty much trashed. It came to $3500 in damage.
Since then I've installed those mechanical deer whistles on the 4Runner and now my Tundra. No more incidents in either vehicle.

I'm not sure if they work either, but I've talked to some UPS drivers who used to hit deer all the time before they installed the whistles. Now they said they haven't hit any in 5 years.

There are a few different types. Some are electronic, some are just mechanical. I don't know if one is better than the other, or, like you said, if they work at all.
