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 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.

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.

Yeah..I stopped right away and looked under ..but I was unable to reach, it was wrapped around really good,the guys used sciccors and it took two of them to take it off. I didn't drive more than like half a mile before I got it taken care of.
