Burro vs. my truck 😳

[Javajoe]

Nobody won
Bloody crime scene. By the time I unlocked my project and walked back to the scene someone had drug him out of the road. My truck is fucked. Won’t even go in reverse. I got a lot of meat in the smashed front end. Hit him doing about 45 on a curve at 2:45am this morning. Gotta call a tow truck, insurance and the wife. Supposed to leave for River Thursday. Moreno Valley hills are full of them. Had 12 come down into the school yesterday on Pigeon Pass Road.

 

[boatpi]

Not good at all.

 

[Bear Down]

That is nuts!! Happy you are safe!

That's a lot of blood all over the place..Holy heck!

 

[Ziggy]

Wow.
.
No question about it, I'd have barfed.

 

[Headless hula]

Damn! After hitting countless deer, I’m shocked that there’s not more damage.

 

[paradise]

Fuck, that sucks

Thats because your used to driving a ford... This is a Chevy.....

 

[CLdrinker]

Is it safe to say... You tapped that Ass?

 

[ltbaney1]

man that sucks, my one of my fears when im driving on CA side in parker is hitting a burro. i always wonder if i dont kill it when i hit and its laying there in pain, if i shoot it how much trouble would i be in.

 

[TOBTEK]

Donnkey…. shriek is gonna kick ur ass!

man that sucks. As mentioned though, metal, plastic, and chrome can be replaced. You can NOT be. Sucks Donkey, but could have been Way worse.

PERFECT excuse to go buy a new F250

Yep. Friend recently hit 1 in his Duramax at 50. Not much damage. He duct taped the bumper and drove it home.

 

[Mandelon]

No air bag deployment?

Their are people actively and successfully opposing Burro birth control and herd thinning and this is what you get.

Consider a burro slammer. Weld hooks on the top bar to catch & help prevent it coming through the windshield.

Nice protester bumper

 

[DaytonaBabe]

Damn.

Glad you weren't hurt.

 

[bonesfab]

Leave it for the next Antifa protest. They may take the hint.

 

[2Driver]

That’s a bummer but the repairs don’t look too bad.

 

[c_land]

Those donkeys are all over the place in those hills. The dump in San Timeoteo Canyon supplements their diet lol

Thats a lot of ass in your grill too lol

 

[badgas]

WOW !

Thats nuts

 

[RiverDave]

with minimal damage that won’t even go in reverse?

 

[Rondog4405]

Damm brutal! Had no idea there were burros even around that area..

 

[81Sprint]

Need to bring that thing to Vegas, since no one knows how to properly use a crosswalk I can bet that would get some attention!

 

[TPC]

If you were up to your neck in a pool full of shit and someone threw Pelosi at you,,, would you duck?

The cow catchers are ugly as hell but sometimes the burro / deer / mustang comes through the windshield.

 

[HBCraig]

Crazy. Bad for both sides

 

[Shlbyntro]

PERFECT excuse to go upgrade to a new F150

Fixed it for you

 

[Cole Trickle]

My dad totaled a dodge van on rice road back in the early 2000's hitting a medium size burro. The damage was pretty crazy.

Should have bought a Chevy.... power wash that fucker, and take your wife to dinner after burro collision..
You guys are not picking up, what I am putting down.

 

[Groper]

Looks like you might have a nice RibEye hanging off the grille Guy

Lol, be hard to tell the difference between her and the pool of shit

Saab tested their cars heavily for large animal cab intrusion being they have plenty of moose in Sweden.

Damn!! You tore that Ass up!!

if I had to guess it’s either broke or pinched a transmission cooling line and it’s a fluid issue hopefully it wasn’t ran for very long like that

 

[HNL2LHC]

That sucks. Good that there wasn’t mare damage than you had. I was wondering how much carnage there would be if you hit one while in Oatman last week. Thanks for clearing it up for me.

Ahhhhhhh, no thanks. did you see after tapping that ass he couldn't even get it in reverse?
You pickin' up what I'm sayin'?

i think a 2wd lower anything isn't a good mixture when it comes to animal strikes...lol

I'm a chevy guy but when you scoop them up into the windshield and a pillar things go pretty bad

 

[Headless hula]

I’ve hit deer with an F-250, multiple 1/2 ton chebbies, a Cherokee, a 78 Chrysler Lebaron, etc….. the 1/2 ton chebbies always fared the worst.

Honestly, that Chevy held up alot better than I thought it would have... Hell any truck to hold up that well after a Burro Attack... lol...

BTW, my 2002 GMC 2500 4x4, was hit at least 6 times by cars, never scratched the paint, never dented a fender or bumper... Your not going to believe this one.. But it got hit by a the same Camry twice in 20 minutes... No shit. My son drove it every day to college... This stupid college kid, was stoned off his ass, backed into our truck, destroyed the entire passenger side ass end of his camry... got out, exchanged information with my son, then did it again... No shit... Stoned dumbed ass...

 

[Javajoe]

No air bag deployment?

Nope, kinda weird

 

[Javajoe]

Soooo…Since I am still planning on going to the river Thursday…in our Tesla now Is there any place in Havasu to rent a 4x4 truck for 4 days for my boat?

Oh I don't know.... if it drives just take it Thursday as is, let that meat cure on there.... be a helluva discussion topic at ramp.

 

[Flying_Lavey]

Nope, kinda weird

Its all based on an accelerometer. They will only deploy at a certain threshold and when the G forces are in particular directions. No need to pop the front air bags for a side impact right? I'm pretty sure that ass didn't stop you in your tracks right? lol!

 

[ONE-A-DAY]

Looks like a nice ribeye hanging from the bumper in one of those pictures

Lol not even close to drivable. Front radiator and cooler destroyed

 

[River Runnin]

Only fair you take the Back Strap and both hind quarters for that mess!

 

[Javajoe]

Glad I’m not the body shop guy that has to clean it

 

[zbudman]

Sorry Joe. That Jack Ass should have looked before crossing.

 

[Nordie]

Jesus do you just look for them?

You ever drove in the widwest? I was there for almost 4 months and the deer you'd see on the side of the highway would shock you.
