Opossums suck.

[romanred62]

Well I was out of town this weekend working a gig which I didn't exactly want to work but needed the money so I went. On the way home I was driving the speed limit on a backroad around 9 PM and guess what ran out in front of my car? Yep an opossum. At 50 mph all I was able to do was let off the gas by the time I struck it. Once I hit it I was pissed. There was nothing I could've done to avoid it. Car behind me, cars in the oncoming lane so there was nowhere to go. So I drove about a mile down the road and found a gas station, got out and checked to see how much damage was done. I hit the opossum on the passenger side.

Damage report:
Driver side foglight broke out of its mount. (Unplugged and removed.)
Passenger side fog light broke out of its mount. (The screw held so I left it.)
Both side fog lights bezels blew off and are now missing.
Massive paint chips on passenger side bumper.
Big gap between bumper and passenger quarter panel.

PICS WILL COME later.

On the plus side my new A-pillars came in today

Yesterday was not a good day for the Mafia. We took two hits.

[danewilson77]

Yeah..no kidding. Lets get back on the right track here....

I have not driven the ZHP for three weeks. I think I'll stay out of it this week. It's too "hot" out there right now.

[zhp43867]

Three weeks? Your car is gonna be mad at you.

I also have an extra fog light maybe? Not sure. Any pictures OP? Me and you are in the same-ish boat, sucks doesn't it?

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Yeah. I need to drive it -- just to keep it active. Put about 100 miles on it this month.

On the flipside, I have driven the 335 more this month. About 300 miles.

The Jeep, meanwhile, has seen the most action. The beater has taken the brunt of the work.
