None of the damage affected driving or safety. I never turned these incidents in to my insurance because I knew that they would total it, and I loved that car.(02-29-2024, 07:10 PM)keaau mary Wrote: Aloha, Awhile back I had a pig charge my truck on 26nd/Kaloli. Major body damage! Limped over to MS Auto across Ken's Towing. They were great! They fixed it in under a week, dealt with my insurance and sent me home in a spotless truck. Highly recommend!
Any idea what prompted this behavior? Also, where was your car body damaged. Must have been a real big one to do this and walk away OK. Hard to believe a pig would get the better of an encounter with a car.
I did eventually get a newer Corolla, and this time, the deer hit me. He ran right into the side of the car. Both side doors were damaged beyond repair. Well, they could have been fixed but the insurance company determined it would be more than the car was worth. (about 6k).
None of the deer died as a result. At least, not at the scene.
