Dumb Luck

I was traveling on I91 today with my new LT (725 miles) and out my left eye saw a large object coming across the opposite lane....it was flying.....it was big.......it was a f_____g big ass turkey. He was so fat, it couldn't get enough air to clear my car and you guessed it........hit the base of my hood and windshield. What a drag........there are some pretty big dents on the edge of the hood and will visit my local Dent Magian and she if he can get them out. If not, its a perfect time to go Two Tone I fiqure.

Ouch, sorry to hear that. Glad no one (but the bird) got hurt. Send pic's if you end up two-toning the HHR. I guess you will now be dubbed with the name Bird Hunter! lol. Sorry again about your car!

Dang..... Turkeys are insane. Not enough sense to get out of the way when they seelarge objects coming at them.

Sorry to hear about your ride. Just be glad cars are fixable.

I am sorry also, but He gets the Title "Bird Slayer" and I can feel his pain.
