    Default Genny injured in fatal encounter

    Last night my Genny was clipped in the chin by a suicidal racoon. The racoon died on the spot but Genny also suffered a broken front facia (bumper cover) Fog light and fog light housing.
    The evil critter attacked from the left side of the road and hit the left front of my baby while we were cruising about 50 mph in a somewhat rural area of Central Florida. I didn't have a chance to react before that 20 lb miscreant hit my baby. I will have her inspected for any safety related issues tomorrow and I have an appointment with the Insurance Adjuster Wednesday morning. At least she is drivable for the time being (as long as they don't find any damage I couldn't see). O well, we are safe and unharmed but I hate to see my Genny with those ugly scars.

    Aww Eddie! Those damned racoons get everyone! Just ask Tiffany (rwdsnail). Her front bumper got clipped too. I'm glad you are safe and still driving that beautiful coupe. I'm sure shell be fixed soon and you can continue to turn heads everywhere you go!

    Sorry about the bumper! Kicking a dead raccoon? Is that like kicking a dead horse?
