something stuck under my Z

Justice97

I one time ran over a dead boar. It was dark and about 5:30 in the morning on a Sunday. I was heading out for a run and was passing what appeared to be a drunk driver. I gun it get in front of him and I guess he didn't like it so he starts tailing me. I gun it to get a way when i notice a huge pile of something in the road. One lane either way and oncoming traffic...If i hit the brakes i risk the drunk fool slamming into me, if i swerve i might hit the car coming head on. One thing to do over the pile of what looked like horse hockey. Well it gave me a little lift when i went over and i heard a couple of pings underneath. I get to my location and when i get out it smells of manure. Well when i drove back after my run I see an area about 20 to 30 ft. long covering the entire lane with blood and boar guts everywhere. It was a small one judging by the skull. Probably about 200 lbs or so. Quite a unique experience cramming a 200lb boar under a Z. Lucky for me there was no damage done and a good pressure washing to the under carriage was all it needed.

I just hit a dog (looked to be a black lab) on the freeway doing 80 on Saturday. Thankfully I had just looked over to see if there was anyone next to me in the HOV lane and there wasn't, so I swerved, but still hit it with what looks to be the outside of my tires... huge thud.

Car in front of me hit it and threw it into the air. I thought it was a tire tread at first with how it flailed about.

Aww man that sucks. Makes me mad when people can't control their animals or don't take care of them.

I was third in a group of cars on I-10 coming back from Nismo Fiesta in San Antonio this past April when a wild boar ran out onto the road. Car #1, a Mustang, hit it dead center in the grille, through it up in the air where it was hit by car #2, an F150. Major damage to the Mustang.

After the F150 was done with it, what was left flew out from under the truck and I had nowhere to go but right over the carcass. I could hear the individual pieces bouncing off the under carriage.

When I got home, there was a fully cooked pork dinner under the car! YICK! It took about an hour of hosing at a local car wash and pulling out entrails to get that mess cleaned up.

I actually hit a buzzard in Harry last night on my way home from work. Stupid thing flew right into the passenger side windshield and slid up and over the A-pillar...the crap it spewed smelt AWFUL-I thought I was going to vomit cleaning it off the Z...

I take it there was no damage? Dem birds can get big.

blackcherry20

nope-no damage. I was afraid it it had damaged the A pillar, it hit really hard, but it slid up and over...and it was a HUGE bird-and stinky. ewwwww. couldn't avoid it. this is actually the 2nd time I have had one puke on my windshield (in the Z), the first one was luckier and it veered away and up.

Buzzards are stinky mainly because they eat dead and decomposing things! I've never smelled one but I can imagine that it's not pleasant!

not sure how that one got overlooked by everyone else.

In the future, if you run over something and your car is making funny noises. Stop the car and just look under it. If there's something that looks foreign like a bunch of rope, you should remove it before driving the car anywhere.
