my car is wrecked!!!!!

long story but i'll make it short. let my friend drive me home and were on the highway and some little animal comes running across he swerves out of the way and then the tires let loose and we lose control and smash a van. def. a scary experience but thank god everyone was alright. will post pics later.

Agreed. It sounds really cold and heartless and all, but I'd only avoid hitting a human being.

well bad news is that i cant get any parts out of the car now b/c its at the body shop now. i was told it will be around $5,000 in damage so not totalled but quite a bit of money. the whole front bumper, grille, headlight, suspension, wheel, and as far as i can tell a lot of stuff behind the front bumper needs replaced. pics will be up later

Slight damage to the left front fender......animals OK!

It's an automatic reaction to swerve to miss an animal, take it out of automatic! Glad you and the passanger weren't injured, that's the best part!
