A friend of mine hit a buck with his '00 Dak., he has a 4x4 basically
stock. He was doing 60 and hit the dear head on.Well, it was in the shop
for a week, it needed a whole new bumber facia, grille, bumper
brackets(bumber was bent in) and a host of other stuff. The bill topped
out at $1200! The antlers(sp?) did damage to the hood, I cant remember
if it was replaced or not. You see, I think it just depends. You got
lucky, my buddy didnt. Doh.
